web apps and cursors

Sue
Does anyone know how to programatically change the cursor to an hour-glass
and back to the default cursor within a web application? Everything I find
only discusses how to do it in a Windows application.

Change to hour-glass:
document.body.style.cursor = 'wait';

To default:
document.body.style.cursor = 'default';

Sorry - should have been more specific. Any way to do this using server-side
code?

Nope. Only possible on client side.

That's what I was afraid of. Thanks for the clarification. Off to the land of
client-side then....
