when I load CSS script with cursor:default for whole BODY, and then put an
IMG with links map, then (in IE) cursor over AREA aren't showing as
"hand". are somebody familiar with the problem and could help me? got any
solution? with Mozilla/Firefox all works fine (as always).
thanks.

area { cursor: auto; } might work.
but I don't want auto. I want arrow everywhere except A and AREA. I don't

Not liking it is insufficient reason to change it. Usability for your
visitors is of primary concern. The I-beam cursor over text is useful to
users, and only remove this if you really have an excellent reason why. "I
don't like it" is not an excellent reason.

That said, the cursor property is what you need to read up on.
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/ui.html#propdef-cursor Decide what you want and
set it. Example: at end of your style declarations:

* {cursor: arrow}
area, a:link, a:visited, a:hover, a:active {cursor: pointer}

There is no such value for cursor in CSS 2.

My mistake. Substitute "default".
