(apologies if this was answered already -- Im down to 1000 unread
messages and having to sort by thread.. if its not in this thread, I've
likely not read it)

I just did a test and I'm also stumped. { cursor: default } works fine
for a regular (a) link, but not for an area. 

One thing to bear in mind about setting the cursor: 
 cursor: hand; /* works wonderfully in IE, not in NN6 */
 cursor: pointer; /* works wonderfully in NN6, not in IE */

does anyone know a workaround for this? I just can't seem to find a
common ground for this one. (without browser sniffing and delivering 2
stylesheets)

Did you glean anything more??

thanks
Sam
