How to remove cursor and hand

Hey – you may need to disable the cursor on hover as well

a:hover {
  cursor: none;
}

This disables the cursor whenever you hover over an a-tag

How to change the cursor into a hand when a user hovers over a list item?

In light of the passage of time, as people have mentioned, you can now safely just use:

li { cursor: pointer; }

How to get the cursor to change to the hand when hovering a button tag

see:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/cursor

so you need to add: cursor:pointer;

In your case use:

#more {
  background:none;
  border:none;
  color:#FFF;
  font-family:Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
  cursor:pointer;
}

This will apply the curser to the element with the ID "more" (can be only used once). So in your HTML use

<input type="button" id="more" />

If you want to apply this to more than one button then you have more than one possibility:

using CLASS

.more {
  background:none;
  border:none;
  color:#FFF;
  font-family:Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
  cursor:pointer;
}

and in your HTML use

<input type="button" class="more" value="first" />
<input type="button" class="more" value="second" />

or apply to a html context:

input[type=button] {
  background:none;
  border:none;
  color:#FFF;
  font-family:Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
  cursor:pointer;
}

and in your HTML use

<input type="button" value="first" />
<input type="button" value="second" />

Change the mouse cursor on mouse over to anchor-like style

Assuming your div has an id="myDiv", add the following to your CSS. The cursor: pointer specifies that the cursor should be the same hand icon that is use for anchors (hyperlinks):

CSS to Add

#myDiv
{
    cursor: pointer;
}

You can simply add the cursor style to your div's HTML like this:

<div style="cursor: pointer">

</div>

EDIT:

If you are determined to use jQuery for this, then add the following line to your $(document).ready() or body onload: (replace myClass with whatever class all of your divs share)

$('.myClass').css('cursor', 'pointer');

CSS/HTML - Cursor changes from pointer to I when hovering over the text inside a button

Found the answer: z-index. I'm not sure what it is but I saw it in another SO post and it worked. The simple answer is to add z-index:9999 to the CSS style of the link. I'm also not sure why the specific value 9999 works (apparently, in situations like this, a different value of z-index should also work), but it's working in my case.

I'll obviously look up z-index later. But if someone feels like shedding some light on it, please do.

Change cursor to hand when mouse goes over a row in table
