Hi,

This is not a HUGE deal if it is not possible (and doesn't warrant a
lot of work) but I am using mouseOvers on cells in tables and rows in
tables. Due to it not being a link (a href = ) the mouse is staying a
pointer. Is there a way to manipulate the mouse to do this (other
than putting a href = # in each one)? Furthermore, is there a way to
control what the mouse is (like can I change it to a small image?)?

Thanks very much.

Kevin

You mean it is the default cursor (typically an arrow.) Are the cells
clickable? If so, you can use CSS to change it to a pointer
(typically a hand with one finger extended.)

Yes, but this is off-topic here. Ask in a CSS group.

use CSS

td { cursor: pointer }

or

#myTable td { cursor: url(myPointer.gif), pointer; }

or :

<td style="cursor:url(myPointer.gif),pointer"
onmouseover="dothat()"
onmouseout="comeback()">

Thanks! I was looking in the wrong spot!

I have tried the CSS but am having trouble for some reason:

.mouseOverCell { background-color: #FFCCDD; font-family: "Helvetica";
font-size: 10pt; color: #FF00CC; font-weight: bold; cursor: url(inc/
pawprint.gif); }

But I have posted this on a CSS board.

Thanks for your help!
