cursor in firefox 1

[seantuk]

if have these peices of code:

.button_mouse{
  cursor: hand;
}

<img class="button_mouse" onClick="document.location.href = baseURL" id="home" src="images/myImage.gif"/>

in internet explorer on the pc, i get a hand icon for the mouse pointer when i'm hovering over this image - which is exactly right - but i the mouse doesn't change on firefox.

how can i make this work for many browsers?

Use "cursorointer" instead.

"cursor:hand" is IE-only. pointer is cross-browser.

Hope this helps,
Dan

Oh how they cluttered the net with wrong properties, those people at Microsoft.

adendum -

perhaps dreamweaver shouldn't be promoting 'cursor:hand' in it's css editor.

All of the WYSIWYG editors have their faults... at an interview today, I had to use Homesite for a practical test... Sometimes it would insert incomplete DOCTYPEs. Ah well... just goes to show that hand-coding will be around for a while to come ;o)
