In this article, we are going to learn how to Hide the cursor on a webpage using CSS and JavaScript.
Approach
- First, select the element where the cursor element needs to hide.
- Add CSS style cursor: none to the class.
- Add the class name (class name of CSS style cursor: none) to the particular element where the cursor element is to be hidden.
Example 1: This example hides the cursor from the <div> element.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title> Hide cursor using JavaScript and CSS</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
<!-- this is my linkedin profile name -->
<h1>CURSOR REMOVER</h1>
<h3> Click on Button to Remove Cursor Inside a Div </h3>
<div id="main"> this is div</div>
<button id="btn" onclick="btnclick();unclick()" > click me</button>
<p id="showlater"> </p>
<script src="index.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
now we are gonna add some css for this….
body {
text-align: center;
font-family: cursive;
}
#main {
background-color: bisque;
height: 100px;
width: 200px;
margin: auto;
color: rgb(0, 0, 0)
}
#btn{
margin-top: 1rem;
background-color:#DCA47C;
color: white;
border-color: #DCA47C;
border-radius: 5px;
}
.newClass {
cursor: none;
}
now we will add some java script to perform .newclass ( which remove cursor inside a div) after clicking on button….
//first of all we call aor div by id "main".
let button = document.getElementById("main");
// now we call our paragraph below button by id "showlater".
let paragraph = document.getElementById("showlater");
//now we change our button html after click from click me to unclick so we call button html by first call button by "btn" id.
let html =document.getElementById('btn');
// now we call a function which perform when we click button which we already add in our html button tag .
function btnclick() {
//in this we add newclass in new class we perform our css cursor : none.
button.classList.add("newClass");
//add message paragraph after click button
paragraph.innerHTML = "cursor has been removed inside a div!!!";
//change button htnl after click
html.innerHTML = "unclick";
};
