asked on

mouse look

Hi,

Is there any way to change the cursor look ?
I want to use a onclick to send using "POST", as oposed to
a hyperlink that uses the "GET".The only thing is that the
mouse cursor does not change when entering the area.
I would like to say something like onmouseon="change the
cursor look"

Thanks.

They don't seem to work with a map.

<map name="themap">
<area ....>
<area ...>
</map>
How can I make the cursor, when the mounter enters an area, become a hand ?

The problem is that I do not want to use a href.
I use a form, with post.
I need to have some java script function that will trigger
on "onmouseover" or something like that.

I think simi should take care of old Q's. Who knows all efforts here could also go for a waste. no?

And byt the way 25 points is less than the minimum of 50 pts for an easy Q.

lexwern, thanks for your "advices" but I would really like to live without them. Please ignore my postings from now.I really do wish to had nothing to do with you. Thank you.

lexxwern

well, i was the first to suggest css and gave a good example[which is the solution btw].
what i get........nothing

i ask you to close all the pending Q's
what i get........flames

Well, and about your GET|POST thing, it has nothing to do with style="cursor:hand;";

go ask the people you want to have something with, theyll say the same.

regards,
