Dreamweaver CS3 Help - How to change pointer icon to ha... - 8/18/2008 17:00:29   
I'm new to Dreamweaver so please have patience because I'm sure this is a silly question. I'm trying to figure out what steps I need to take so when a user hovers their mouse over an image on our site, the cursor changes from a pointer to the classic hand icon. It does this for several images on our site but not for others and I can't figure out why. Thanks in advance for your help.

Usually it happens due to the image being a link, or someone has used CSS to change the cursor on hover. Any chance of a link so we can look at the code?

locate the image tag in the code

<img src="YourImage" style="cursor:pointer"

it's clumsy to use an inline style - simply make redefine the hover style, or make it a class and apply it to the images. don't forget though that if you're wanting the hand icon you're explicitly saying that the thing hovered on is a link, so be careful if that's waht you're NOT using it for. otherwise for links as G says it should show anyway. if not, then post a link to your page and we can advise you further...
