preloading custom cursor

D

Dalton

I am familiar with how to preload images on a webpage. However, since
there is no 'src' attribute associated with cursors, this same
technique fails if I want to preload a cursor as well.

The problem I am having is that every time my custom cursor is needed,
a call has to be made to the server to retrieve it. The desired
effect is usually lost since it is only needed briefly in the first
place. Here is the code in question:

<form name="frm33" style="color:red" onMouseOver = "this.style.cursor
= 'nik.cur'">
<input type="checkbox" name="clickhere"/>Click Here!
</form>

where nik.cur is the cursor file.

Help is appreciated and solutions do not need to be cross-platform.
Our users all use IE, most of them with v6.
