I need to prevent cursor flickering in editor when adding objects to the DOM.

Reply Quote

Hi,

I have a javascript function that performs some fairly heavty DOM manipulations, and while that is happening if the cursor is over the editor window where the text is it flickers between an hour glass and a vertical line. I'd like to force it to an hour glass till the DOM manipulations are complete. How do I do that?

Thanks.

Yes.

This is a Javascript issue.

Please use the following code:

<script>document.body.style.cursor = 'wait';</script>

<body onload="document.body.style.cursor = 'default';">

If you have any questions with the above code, please let me know.

I need a way to do it after the document is fully loaded.

It doesn't make sense. However here is the code:

<body onload="document.body.style.cursor = wait;">
