I have created a link using javascript to open a new browser window (pop up a smaller window). Can anybody please suggest how to force the cursor to become a pointer. It is now an h-bar.

Thanks Dave:
I use an external style sheet and have tried "default" and nothing happens. I have tried "hand", but it turns the cursor into a hand even when not over the link. Have tried using a class but that doesnt seem to work either.
The text is not seen as a link by the browser.

You could try cursor:nw-resize.

Hot cursor Pyro. Thanks.
I have solved it with this line:
<P onmouseover="this.style.cursor='hand'">

I'm sorry, I thought you were looking for a regualar cursor (the one you would normaly see when not over anything...) Also, instead of 'hand', I think you need to do 'pointer' to be NS compatable...
