Probably best done with CSS

how can i do it using javascript

Try

Code:

body.style.cursor="move";

"move" should be replaced with your desired shape's keyword. The keywords are the same for JS and CSS (I assumed so because it's "style" element). It may not work with some browsers (Should work fine with IE and Mozilla's later versions).

Hope this helps.

In some browser/OS combinations, it would not work. In linux, it would just not display, but if someone using windoze 95 would have their browser 'trashed'.
