Javascript is pretty good at manipulating css    document body style cursor    cursor-url      OR  var elementToChange   document getElementsByTagName  body   0    elementToChange style cursor    url  cursor url with protocol    auto     or with jquery      html   css  cursor  url  cursor url with protocol    auto      Firefox will not work unless you specify a default cursor after the imaged one   other cursor keywords  Also remember that IE6 only supports  cur and  ani cursors   If cursor doesn t change  In case you are moving the element under the cursor relative to the cursor position  e g  element dragging  you have to force a redraw on the element      in plain js document getElementById  parentOfElementToBeRedrawn   style display    none   document getElementById  parentOfElementToBeRedrawn   style display    block      in jquery     parentOfElementToBeRedrawn   hide   show 0       working sample    lt  DOCTYPE html PUBLIC  -  W3C  DTD XHTML 1 0 Transitional  EN   http   www w3 org TR xhtml1 DTD xhtml1-transitional dtd  gt   lt html xmlns  http   www w3 org 1999 xhtml  gt   lt head gt   lt title gt First jQuery-Enabled Page lt  title gt   lt style type  text css  gt   div       height  100px      width  1000px      background-color  red      lt  style gt   lt script type  text javascript  src  jquery-1 3 2 js  gt  lt  script gt  lt  head gt   lt body gt   lt div gt  hello with a fancy cursor   lt  div gt   lt  body gt   lt script type  text javascript  gt  document getElementsByTagName  body   0  style cursor    url  http   wiki-devel sugarlabs org images e e2 Arrow cur    auto      lt  script gt   lt  html gt

Look at this page  http   www webcodingtech com javascript change-cursor php   Looks like you can access cursor off of style   This page shows it being done with the entire page  but I m sure a child element would work just as well   document body style cursor    wait
