User Interface - Cursor: auto

Last update on August 19 2022 21:50:33 (UTC/GMT +8 hours)

Cursor: auto

If the value of the cursor property is set to auto, it is the user agent(s) which decide how the cursor will look like depending on the current context.

Here is the css file (say auto.css):

.auto {cursor: auto;}

Here is the html file (say auto.html):

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<title>example of external CSS - auto </title>
<link href="auto.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
<p><a href="test.htm" class="auto">Click here to go learn more about CSS.</a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
</body>
</html>

Here is how it will look:

In the consequent pages, we will see each of the cursor property value in detail along with the example.
