Any idea why the cursor will not appear as the standard 'hand' cursor indicating that it is over an image link until it is moved several pixels?

This poses a problem because unless someone moves the cursor over an image the viewer will not be aware of the fact that it is in fact a link. And also because of this the title 'balloon' does not appear either until the cursor is moved.

My site (on which this is happening) is... <http://www.theimagecache.com>

The specific situation is: when a popup window is opened with an image in it and the image is clicked on so as to see the next image, when the next image appears the cursor reverts to the generic arrow cursor rather than indicating that this image is also a link. That is... until someone moves the cursor a few pixels... and then the 'hand' cursor once again appears.

Any ideas as to how I could avoid this would be appreciated.

OSX 10.5.6; GLCS2; G5 tower

Thanks for any advice,

Ron

I don't think you can.
As far as I can remember this is how it's always worked in all browsers.

Martin,

Too bad there isn't a way around this.

I thought there might be a javascript trick, or something.

Well... unless I here otherwise... I'll assume this is true.

Thanks for responding.

Regards,

Ron
