umm the blinking cursor you see in every text or comment box. I am seeing it now as I create this message.

As for this being a php problem I guess it is not, but the textarea code appears in this php file of mine.

Custom cursors are part of styling and thus CSS...

Code: Select all

textarea {
 cursor: url('cursor-pointer.cur'), default;
}
Gecko 1.8 and newer supports cursors except for ANI extension.

IE supports all cursors as far as I know.

They both refuse to use the same relative urls however! I recommend using absolute urls for cursors.

No other browsers support cursors at least through CSS.

This ~IS~ a valid standard to include cursor files. :)

That standard cursor does show in textareas and follow the user along by default in just about all browsers. What are you after here?
