Getting the browser cursor from “wait” to “auto” without the user moving the mouse

Question

I use this jQuery code to set the mouse pointer to its busy state (hourglass) during an Ajax call...

$(\'body\').css(\'cursor\', \'wait\');

Answer 1

Try using the correct css value for the cursor property:

$('body').css('cursor','wait');
