Custom Cursor for Friendster

[the queen bee]

Hi! I want to customize the cursor of my profile in Friendster. I do not wish to customize using the standard cursors, I wish to use images as cursors or even animations. I think this is done via CSS, how do I do this?

body { cursor: url(path/to/cursor); }

This will only work in IE and Firefox1.5+ (along with other Gecko releases).

Thanks! So this means I should have a cursor file saved in my pc right? So, for example, below is my CSS code, where do I insert body { cursor: url(path/to/cursor); }? Thanks!

<STYLE TYPE='text/css'>

BODY{background-color:#FFCCFF; color:#6666FF; font-family:cursive; font-size:small; font-weight:normal; scrollbar-3dlight-color:#FF3399; scrollbar-arrow-color:#FF0066; scrollbar-base-color:#FF33CC; scrollbar-darkshadow-color:#FF00CC; scrollbar-face-color:#CC99FF; scrollbar-highlight-color:#FF0099; scrollbar-shadow-color:#FF33CC; }

Nope, you'll need to have the cursor stored online somewhere so that everyone can access it. Once you've done that change the path in my example to the location of your cursor, then add the rule to the appropriate part of your stylesheet (probably inside the body for the time being).

how do I store the cursor somewhere online? can I use the downloadable/available cursors offered by some websites? How? What do you mean by the path? URL? How?

I have below code for a cursor from a certain website:

<b style=position:absolute;left:675;top:0;font-family:arial;font-size:10pt;><a href="http://www.nortonproject.com/myspace-cursor.html"><img src="http://www.nortonproject.com/mycursor.gif" alt="custom myspace cursors free" border="0"></a></b><br><a href="http://www.nortonproject.com/myspace-cursor.html"><img src="http://www.nortonproject.com/mycursor.gif" alt="custom myspace cursors free" border="0"><br>Custom MySpace Cursors Free!</a><br><STYLE TYPE="text/css">p {align=justify}
BODY{cursor: url(http://www.nortonproject.com/customcursors/BEAR.cur);}
a {cursor: url(http://www.nortonproject.com/customcursors/CHERUB.ani);}</STYLE>

How do I use it?

I tried inserting

cursor: url(http://www.nortonproject.com/customcursors/BEAR.cur);

in my CSS code in my 2nd post but it doesn't work...
