Plain old arrow cursor

windows

Guest
What's the name for the standard arrow cursor when specifying the cursor type using CSS? 'Arrow' doesn't work, and 'pointer' is the same as 'hand'. I've seen everything else like 'help' and stuff, but nothing for the plain old arrow.<br />
In case you're wondering why this would possibly be any use, I want to display the arrow when the mouse is passed over a certain piece of text and not the 'text' cursor.<br />
Thanks.<!--content-->'default'<!--content-->Yes. It would be default. Lissa Explains (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.lissaexplains.com">http://www.lissaexplains.com</a><!-- m -->) tells you things like this. It also gives you list of the different pointers.<!--content-->Thanks for that. I had completely forgotten.<!--content-->just one note on the contents in the LISSA's pages<br />

the cursor: hand is a microsoft internet explorer thing. The standards (w3.org) definition is to use: pointer (not hand).<br />
