Attempted to place one on my page but the host does not allow this for free space. http://webpages.charter.net/lgbeard/404error.html Also tried some experiments with css and the cursor, only works in IE6 i think. Netscape it does not work, still figureing this out. What i had done was to draw these two, a pointer . )\ `.) and a hand for links (\.. /))\\\ \^ /// converted them to a bitmap then to a cursor file gave them some transparency with a little color. Fiddle with size a little bit trying to keep it looking like the ascii drawing. Feedback most welcome. lgbeard
