How to Hide the Cursor in a Webpage Using CSS or JavaScript

Is it possible to hide the cursor in a webpage using CSS or Javascript?

With CSS:

selector { cursor: none; }

An example:

<div class="nocursor">   Some stuff</div><style type="text/css">    .nocursor { cursor:none; }</style>

Web browser: Hide mouse cursor

Just use a CSS rule:

* {
cursor: none;
}

javascript - hiding cursor on all page (even if there is a css which says otherwise on some element)

You could add a fixed positioned div which overlays your website. The div would have a style of cursor: none, and since it is an overlay, the styles of the elements below it won't trigger the cursor to change

const overlay = document.createElement('div');
overlay.classList.add('overlay');
document.body.insertAdjacentElement('beforeend', overlay);
.overlay {
position: fixed;
cursor: none;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}

.pointerCursor {
cursor: "pointer";
}
<html>

<body>
<h1> here is a web page </h1>
<button class="pointerCursor">click me</button>
</body>

</html>

How to hide the cursor when its idle and hovering over a playing video?

Do not use the "Identity operator" === to assign a value.

document.body.style.cursor === "none"

You should assign the value "none" like this

document.body.style.cursor = "none"

The same goes for
document.body.style.cursor === "default";

Hiding the mouse cursor when idle using JavaScript

In CSS 2 none is not a valid value for the cursor property. It is valid in CSS 3, however.

Otherwise you might be able to use a custom cursor loaded from a URI that is simply transparent.

I would consider this to be highly distracting for the user, though, so I wouldn't advise you to actually do that.
