Okay, here's the deal, I've put a personal cursor on my website but it changes back to the default one when the visitor points to the scrollbar. Is there a way to avoid this?

here's the code i've used to make the page show my own cursor (named "arrow.cur"):

<head><style>
<!--
BODY{ cursor:url("arrow.cur"); }
-->
</style></head>

Thanx

This is a CSS question, but you cannot avoid that from happening; also, it only works in the Internet Explorer browser.

Ooops sorry, my bad...

Well, so much for my great scheme then ;)

also, it only works in the Internet Explorer browser.
Since it doesn't create errors in other browsers there's no problem using it anyway:p

Thanx again:D

Actually, it is invalid CSS according to the W3C. You should always validate your CSS code (CSS validator link below) to see if it is compliant. I understand, though, if you would like to keep the code there... It just won't be "as" valid, just like colored scrollbars are not valid.
