In this tutorial, we’ll explore two ways to hide the cursor: using CSS and JavaScript.
Option 1: Use CSS
CSS provides an easy way to hide the cursor using the cursor property. You can apply this property to specific elements or to the entire webpage.
Cursor hidden for the entire webpage
You can use the following CSS to hide the entire web page cursor:
body {
cursor: none;
}
Cursor hidden for specific Elements
If you want to hide the cursor only for specific elements, you can use the cursor property on those elements. For example, using id #hide-cursor to hide the cursor for a div:
#hide-cursor {
cursor: none;
}
Option 2: Use JavaScript
JavaScript can be used to hide the cursor dynamically based on certain conditions or events. This method is useful if you want to hide the cursor in response to user interactions.
Cursor hidden for the entire webpage
You can hide an entire web page cursor with JavaScript:
document.body.style.cursor = 'none';
Cursor hidden for specific Elements
You can use JavaScript to hide the cursor for a specific element, and apply the cursor property to those elements. For example, to hide the cursor for a div by ID hide-cursor :
document.getElementById('hide-cursor').style.cursor = 'none';
So, this is how you can hide the cursor with CSS or JavaScript.
