Custom Cursors in Dreamweaver

[de51gnr]

Hi all
I am developing a site in dreamweaver and the client wants a custom image to replace the cursor. Does anybody know a way of doing this?
It could be when the cursor hovers over a link or all the time instead of the arrow cursor.

I have seen a few ideas using CSS but was wondering if there was a different way.

The site is half way finished so I could do with a solution that doesn't involve changing a lot of pages if possible.

Thanks

CSS is the only way of achieving this incredibly annoying effect. And if you're using CSS then you'll only need to change that one CSS file

cursor: crosshair for example

Thanx Chris
The site is for a bingo club and they want the cursor to change into a bingo dabber (I know, I know but the customer is always right..right?), any ideas on how to create the cursor and us it in dreamweaver?

Create the image and save it as any format that is on this list

Standard Cursors are 32x32 pixels.

Use Irfanview to convert to a .cur file.

Use css to call the name of the .cur.

I tried Irfanview but it wouldn't save as a .cur file. Found a cursor creator (Sib Cursor Creator) and used that instead. CSS works great thanks for your advice.
