CSS CURSON

This property controls the type of cursor that is used when a pointing device is over an element. Accepts a comma separated list of the below values. Browsers should attempt to first use the cursor indicated on the left, working to the right until it has a cursor it can use.
Note: Although the CSS spec says that this property is inherited, there are some cases in browsers where it is not explicitly so. Some elements that use a different default cursor (eg: hyperlinks, text entry elements) will override the parent cursor type by default unless explicitly set to “inherit”.

Example
blockquote { cursor: help }

This is some text

Possible Values
Value Description
inherit Explicitly sets the value of this property to that of the parent.
default Browser default cursor. Often an arrow.
auto Browser determines what cursor to display according to context.
[URL] URL of a custom cursor to be used for the specified selector. If multiple URLs are listed for a cursor, the leftmost one is used. If that is not available, an attempt is made for the the next one indicated to the right, and so on. If none of the URL-defined cursors can be used, a generic cursor indicated at the end of the list is used.

row-resize Used to indicate that a row or item can be vertically re-sized. Represented with a horizontal bar in the middle of two arrows pointing in opposite up/down directions.
no-drop Used to indicate that a dragged item cannot be dropped at the current cursor position. Represented as a hand next to a small circle with a slash through it.
not-allowed Used to indicate that a requested action can not be performed. Represented as a circle with a slash through it.

grabbing Used to indicate that content is in the act of being “grabbed”. Often rendered as a closed/clenched hand.
spinning Used to indicate that processing is being done by the program.

Sometimes rendered as a spinning, striped ball.
