Getting an index-finger-pointer

[Peter Billam]

Greetings. (newbie apologies...) In FF, in

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaS cript">
function whatever() { alert('whatever '); }
</SCRIPT>
<A HREF="javascrip t:whatever()">C lickable One</A>
<P><A onClick="whatev er()">Clickable Two</A></P>
<P onClick="whatev er()">Clickable Three</P>

when the pointer hovers over Clickable One it changes to a hand
with pointing index-finger, which indicates to the user that this
text is clickable. But over Clickable Two and Clickable Three,
the pointer only changes to a thin-I, intended to be used in
highlighting text; this is less helpful to the user.

What's the way to get a index-finger-pointer for Clickable Two and
Clickable Three?
Is there something that I should be doing with onMouseOver ?

Regards, Peter

Wrong NG. You are looking for the css property "cursor". In your case
"cursor: pointer".
