what are you developing in… you can’t have flash OR html it’s one or the other.

I’m not sure why you’d want to do that, or even if it’s a good idea to just “remove” the cursor on someone while they’re at your page. But…

CSS doesn’t have a cursor: none; but it does allow for cursor: url(…). So you could make your own blank cursor and call: cursor: url(“blank.cur”); in the CSS for your drop down menu. Of course it’s still recommended to put a valid value after the url() incase the cursor you make isn’t available. Like: cursor: **url(“blank.cur”), default;**

BTW - I’m not sure what you mean by “when high lighted over”. So I’m not 100% if using just CSS will work for your needs.

eh… i’m not sure why the person wants to do it… but she does and she asked me how it’s done… She’s using Html… I’m pretty sure. Front Page or dream weaver not sure which though.

definately not a good idea… expecially with html… because if the mouse disappears there and something goes wrong, its gone forever! 😛 lol not sure even if its possible, if anything… I would make a custom flash drop down… and use that with a mouse.hide and put it on its own layer.
