Safari custom cursor not working


Safari custom cursor not working



I have a custom cursor for an image map with a lot of hotspots. My cursor works fine in Firefox and Internet Explorer, but Safari returns the default one.



I used code found on other websites. My directory structure is:



index.php > css/main.css > css/images/pencil.cur



Here is my implementation (please note I need the same custom cursor for both normal and a, a:hover and a:visited states:


#gameScreen area, #gameScreen .wrapper, #gameScreen .wrapper a:hover, #gameScreen .wrapper a:visited {
cursor: url("images/rcspencil.cur"),url("css/images/rcspencil.cur"),default;
}



Any ideas?

Here's the most browser-compatible syntax I can think of. There might be a better one with browser hacks but I'd ignore it.


cursor: url(cursor.cur),url(cursor/cursor.cur),default;



I wouldn't think the quotations would prevent it from working, but try it without them. The only other thing I can think of is that your selectors are wrong, like the selectors you've got listed don't include the thing you're hovering over.





I have changed the code to (to ensure I include each possible selector) but still the same issue on Safari. On Chrome the cursor works except for a hover state. This is frustrating!!!! #gameScreen area, #gameScreen .wrapper, #gameScreen .wrapper a:hover, #gameScreen img { cursor: url(cursor/cursor.cur),url(cursor.cur),default; } #gameImg, #gameImg area, #gameImg area a, #gameImg area a:hover, #gameImg a, #gameImg a:hover { cursor: url(cursor/cursor.cur),url(cursor.cur),default; }

I fixed it by just resizing the icon. It appears that webkit browsers needs icons to be less than 50px x 50px, I resized my 68x68px to 40x40px and it worked, with the CSS provided by Jackson Gariety

@MauritzSwanepoel I've found that Safari (5.1.7 on Snow Leopard 10.6.8) can handle a 64x64px custom URL cursor. Also (for me) having quotes doesn't break things, but equally, as for other CSS images, you don't actually need them.

PHP contact form sending but not receiving emails

PHP contact form sending but not receiving emails I have created a contact form using PHP to send the data. The form seems to send fine as there are no errors and success message appears, however I am not receving the emails into the designated inbox. I am using PHPMailer as I originally tried just using the php 'mail' command which I now understand is a bit hit and miss. I cannot see why I would not be receving the emails so I would be very grateful for any help that could be given. I'm quite new to PHP so please be patient with me :) <?php use PHPMailerPHPMailerPHPMailer; use PHPMailerPHPMailerException; $msg = ""; if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { require 'phpmailer/src/Exception.php'; require 'phpmailer/src/PHPMailer.php'; require 'phpmailer/src/SMTP.php'; function sendemail ($to, $from, $body) { $mail = new PHPMailer(true); $mail->setFrom($from); $mail->addAddress($to); $ma...

Do graphics cards have individual ID by which single devices can be distinguished?

Do graphics cards have individual ID by which single devices can be distinguished? I have several graphics cards of the same manufacturer and same model and I want to distinguish them not only by the pcie socket they reside in but by some individual value I can read from the hardware. Is there such value and if so what would it be called and how could I access it? Right now I'm using modern nvidia cards (10xx series) and nvidia inspector.but I'd prefer if there was any value that was also applicable to amd. I have programming and scripting knowledge. I am running Windows 10 1 Answer 1 This is a powershell example to pull information from video cards. The DeviceID is supposed to be unique but only if the manufacturer supports Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM). (I copied this directly from docs.microsoft.com) $strComputer = "." $colItems = get-wmiobject -class "Win32_VideoC...

iOS Top Alignment constraint based on screen (superview) height Let's say for example i want my view's top margin be 30 px for iPhone 6s and for the other screen i want to change this constants from 30 to X where X is proportional to total height of screen i.e. 36.5 for iPhone X, 33 for iPhone 6s plus, 25 for iPhone SE And so on .... I know i can take @IBOutlet of NSLayoutConstraint and change it programmatically but what i want is i want to set it like aspect ratio that we have for height width like subview's heigh width is proportional it's superview it changes with super view's height and width @IBOutlet NSLayoutConstraint 2 Answers 2 The constraint you need here is the superView's centerY set multiplier to 0.5 if you want the top anchor's constant to be 0.25 of screen height from the top , so adjust the multiplier according to this logic which is height_of_scre...
