Email Cursor

Email Cursor Javascript by Kurt Grigg

This script causes an "email me" message to follow your mouse cursor around the page. When clicked the default email client will open so an email can be sent.

Change the message, email addy and font type at the top of the email cursor script. Compatible with normal stylesheet rules for link colors, etc

Very useful and easy to install. If you have problems send me an email. :)

Installation;

Copy the code below and paste this into your html document as the last thing on the page just above the closing body tag. </body>
