Where do you want the cursor? Over the entire page or just on links? It's not associated with anything at the moment, so that's why it doesn't work.

If it's for links:
<style type="text/css">
a { cursor: url('www.freewebs.com/xeroli/cursor.cur'); }
body {
scrollbar-arrow-color: white;
scrollbar-base-color: #dddddd;
scrollbar-dark-shadow-color: red;
scrollbar-track-color: eeeeee;
}
</style>

In the body:
<style type="text/css">
body {
cursor: url('www.freewebs.com/xeroli/cursor.cur');
scrollbar-arrow-color: white;
scrollbar-base-color: #dddddd;
scrollbar-dark-shadow-color: red;
scrollbar-track-color: eeeeee;
}
</style>

If it still doesn't work, add http:// to the front of the url for it, and check to make sure that the server allows .cur files. Your CSS should be inbetween the <head> and </head> tags too.

the cursor works here :)

exept you have this stylesheet coding part after the <body> tag. You really have to remove it:

<style type="text/css">
body {
cursor: url('http://www.freewebs.com/xeroli/cursor.cur');
scrollbar-arrow-color: white;
scrollbar-base-color: #dddddd;
scrollbar-dark-shadow-color: red;
scrollbar-track-color: eeeeee;
}
</style>

If you want the cursor to be on the links too then add this line to the coding between the <head> and </head>:

a { cursor: url('http://www.freewebs.com/xeroli/cursor.cur'); }
