How to change cursor to wait when using jQuery .load()

Question

While waiting for a response from a .load(), is there any way to change the cursor to the busy/wait cursor?

Answer 1

I had to tweak the eloquent answer above to work with jQuery > 1.8.

$(document).ajaxStart(function () {
    $(document.body).css({ 'cursor': 'wait' })
});
$(document).ajaxComplete(function () {
    $(document.body).css({ 'cursor': 'default' })
});
