    JavaScript problem: cursor doesn't change to a hand on menu mouse over in Netscape

    Hi,
    I use a pop-menu which works fine in IE. When you mouse over the menu the cursor changes to a hand. In Netscape the cursor changes from a hand to a bar (I). A free HTML validator tells me the script is missing a required attribute???
    Any help would be appreciated.
    I use Dreamweaver and the pop-up menu is on the home page of http://www.eastlongmeadow.org/library
    Thanks!

    Try using CSS
    You can put this in every link

    style="cursor:h and"

    or you can just add it to your link class style
    cursor:hand;

      Probably means the type attribute which is required:
      [html]<script type="text/javascript">[/html]

        "hand" is non-standard. Use "pointer" instead.
