You need to use a "style" mark-up language known as CSS (which is short for Cascading Style Sheet).

Put this in the head of your HTML document:

<style type=text/css>

body {

cursor: CURSOR_NAME;

}

</style>

And these are the valid values for CURSOR_NAME - simply replace that bit with the appropriate cursor type from this list:

cursor: auto (uses what is set by user)

cursor: crosshair (should produce a cross)

cursor: default (cursor remains as it is)

cursor: e-resize (arrow pointing right)

cursor: hand (the traditional pointing hand)

cursor: help (a Question Mark should appear)

cursor: move (a cross with arrows on the tips)

cursor: n-resize (an arrow pointing north or up)

cursor: ne-resize (an arrow pointing northeast)

cursor: nw-resize (an arrow pointing northwest)

cursor: pointer (that hand again)

cursor: s-resize (an arrow pointing south or down)

cursor: se-resize (an arrow pointing southeast)

cursor: sw-resize (an arrow pointing southwest)

cursor: text (looks like the end of an I-beam)

cursor: w-resize (an arrow pointing west)

cursor: wait (an hourglass)

  • Upload an image at http://www.cursor.cc and convert it. There you can also draw a new cursor from scratch pixel by pixel.
  • Dont't forget to choose the right hotspot. That's the position, where the mouse clicks. Normally that is on the top left, but sometimes it' s in the center (e.g. for crosshairs) or somewhere else.
  • Download the cursor.cur file.
  • Put the cursor.cur file into your webserver directory.
  • Add this to your CSS file:

    body{ cursor: url('cursor.cur'), auto;}
