Wandering Cursor

Wandering Cursor by Kurt Grigg

This cursor script has a pointer image wandering around the webpage. Looks great and I'm sure it will find it's way to more than a few webpages.

STEP 1

Copy the code below and paste this into the head of your html document.

<script language="JavaScript"> <!-- Roaming Cursor script by Kurt Grigg http://website.lineone.net/~kurt.grigg/javascript <!-- Distributed by http://www.hypergurl.com // your image goes here var cursorpath="cursor.gif" // Change nothing below if (document.layers) {document.write("<LAYER NAME='PoInTeRs' LEFT=10 TOP=10><img src='"+cursorpath+"' width=17 height=22></LAYER>")} else if (document.all){document.write("<div id='pOiNtErS' style='position:absolute;top:10px;left:10px;width:17px;height:22px;z-index:50'><img src='"+cursorpath+"' width=17 height=22></div>")} count=-1; move=1; function Curve(){ abc=new Array(0,1,1,1,2,3,4,0,6,-1,-1,-1,-2,-3,-4,0,-6) for (i=0; i < abc.length; i++) {var C=Math.round(Math.random()*[i])} howbend=abc[C]; setTimeout('Curve()',1900); return howbend; } ypos=10; xpos=10; degree = 60; function MoveRandom(){ PathBend=degree+=howbend;//ok! y = 4*Math.sin(PathBend*Math.PI/180); x = 6*Math.cos(PathBend*Math.PI/180); if (document.layers){ ypos+=y; xpos+=x; document.PoInTeRs.top=ypos+window.pageYOffset; document.PoInTeRs.left=xpos+window.pageXOffset; } else if (document.all){ ypos+=y; xpos+=x; document.all.pOiNtErS.style.top=ypos+document.body.scrollTop; document.all.pOiNtErS.style.left=xpos+document.body.scrollLeft; } T=setTimeout('MoveRandom()',50); } function edges(){ if (document.layers){ if (document.PoInTeRs.left >= window.innerWidth-40+window.pageXOffset)degree=Math.round(Math.random()*45+157.5); if (document.PoInTeRs.top >= window.innerHeight-30+window.pageYOffset)degree=Math.round(Math.random()*45-112.5); if (document.PoInTeRs.top <= 2+window.pageYOffset) degree = Math.round(Math.random()*45+67.5);//OK! if (document.PoInTeRs.left <= 2+window.pageXOffset) degree = Math.round(Math.random()*45-22.5);//OK! } else if (document.all) { if (document.all.pOiNtErS.style.pixelLeft >= document.body.offsetWidth-45+document.body.scrollLeft)degree=Math.round(Math.random()*45+157.5); if (document.all.pOiNtErS.style.pixelTop >= document.body.offsetHeight-35+document.body.scrollTop)degree=Math.round(Math.random()*45-112.5); if (document.all.pOiNtErS.style.pixelTop <= 2+document.body.scrollTop) degree = Math.round(Math.random()*45+67.5);//OK! if (document.all.pOiNtErS.style.pixelLeft <= 2+document.body.scrollLeft) degree = Math.round(Math.random()*45-22.5);//OK! } setTimeout('edges()',100); } function starteffect(){ Curve(); MoveRandom();// onUnload="opener.gO()" edges(); } if (document.all||document.layers) window.onload=starteffect --> </script>

STEP 2

Right click on the pointer image.
Save it to your hard drive and upload it to your server into the same folder as your html pages.

You can change the image to anything you want. If Changing the image, place your image name in the top of the script at var cursorpath="cursor.gif".
