I've got a list, and I have a click handler for its items:
<ul>
<li>foo</li>
<li>goo</li>
</ul>
How can I change the mouse pointer into a hand pointer (like when hovering over a button)? Right now the pointer turns into a text selection pointer when I hover over the list items.

In light of the passage of time, as people have mentioned, you can now safely just use:
li { cursor: pointer; }
You do not require jQuery for this, simply use the following css:
li {cursor: pointer}
And voilà! Handy.
use
cursor: pointer;
cursor: hand;
if you want to have a crossbrowser result!
This thread is getting out of hand, it quickly went from cursors to string instruments. :)
Thankfully Google always sends me here when I need a quick reminder, for complete cross browser, use:
cursor: pointer;
cursor: hand;
li:hover {
cursor: pointer;
}
Other valid values (which hand
is not) for the current HTML spec can be viewed here.
li:hover {cursor: hand; cursor: pointer;}
I think it would be smart to only show the hand/pointer cursor when javascript is available. So people will not have the feeling they can click on something that is not clickable.
To achieve that you could use javascript to add the css to the element like so
$("li").css({"cursor":"pointer"});
or chain it directly to the click handler.
Or when modernizer in combination with <html class="no-js">
is used, the css would look like this
.js li { cursor: pointer; }
For being able to make anything get the "mousechange" treatment, you can add a CSS class:
.mousechange:hover {
cursor: pointer;
}
<span class="mousechange">Some text here</span>
I would not say to use cursor:hand
since it was only valid for IE 5.5 and below, and IE 6 came with XP (2002). People will only get the hint to upgrade when their browser stops working for them. Additionally, in Visual Studio, it will red underline that entry. It tells me:
Validation (CSS 3.0): "hand" is not a valid value for the "cursor" property
</div>
CSS:
.auto { cursor: auto; }
.default { cursor: default; }
.none { cursor: none; }
.context-menu { cursor: context-menu; }
.help { cursor: help; }
.pointer { cursor: pointer; }
.progress { cursor: progress; }
.wait { cursor: wait; }
.cell { cursor: cell; }
.crosshair { cursor: crosshair; }
.text { cursor: text; }
.vertical-text { cursor: vertical-text; }
.alias { cursor: alias; }
.copy { cursor: copy; }
.move { cursor: move; }
.no-drop { cursor: no-drop; }
.not-allowed { cursor: not-allowed; }
.all-scroll { cursor: all-scroll; }
.col-resize { cursor: col-resize; }
.row-resize { cursor: row-resize; }
.n-resize { cursor: n-resize; }
.e-resize { cursor: e-resize; }
.s-resize { cursor: s-resize; }
.w-resize { cursor: w-resize; }
.ns-resize { cursor: ns-resize; }
.ew-resize { cursor: ew-resize; }
.ne-resize { cursor: ne-resize; }
.nw-resize { cursor: nw-resize; }
.se-resize { cursor: se-resize; }
.sw-resize { cursor: sw-resize; }
.nesw-resize { cursor: nesw-resize; }
.nwse-resize { cursor: nwse-resize; }
You can also have the cursor be an image:
.img-cur {
cursor: url(images/cursor.png), auto;
}
ul li:hover{
cursor: pointer;
}
This should work
<style>
li:hover{
cursor: hand;
}
</style>
for basic hand symbol: try
cursor:pointer
If you want hand symbol like drag some item and drop it,
try
cursor:grab
ul li:hover{
cursor: pointer;
}
for more mouse events check CSS cursor property
All of the other responses suggest using the standard CSS pointer, however, there are two methods:
Apply the CSS property cursor:pointer;
to the elements. (This is the default style when a cursor hovers over a button.)
Apply the CSS property cursor:url(pointer.png);
using a custom graphic for your pointer. This may be more desirable if you want to ensure that the user experience is identical on all platforms (instead of allowing the browser/OS decide what your pointer cursor should look like). Note that fallback options may be added in case the image is not found, including secondary urls or any of the other options i.e. cursor:url(pointer.png,fallback.png,pointer);
Of course these may be applied to the list items in this manner li{cursor:pointer;}
, as a class .class{cursor:pointer;}
, or as a value for the style attribute of each element style="cursor:pointer;"
.
Note: this is not recommended as it is considered bad practice
Wrapping the content in an anchor tag containing an href
attribute will work without explicitly applying the cursor: pointer;
property with the side effect of anchor properties (amended with CSS):
<a href="#" style="text-decoration: initial; color: initial;"><div>This is bad practice, but it works.</div></a>
</div>
Just for completeness:
cursor: -webkit-grab;
also gives a hand, the one you know when moving the view of an image around.
Quite useful if you want to emulate grab behavior using jquery and mousedown.
Use for li
li:hover{
cursor: pointer;
}

Simply just do something like this:
li {
cursor: pointer;
}
I apply it on your code to see how it works:
li {
cursor: pointer;
}
<ul>
<li>foo</li>
<li>goo</li>
</ul>
Note: Also DO not forget you can have any hand cursor with customised cursor, you can create fav hand icon like this one for example:
div {
display: block;
width: 400px;
height: 400px;
background: red;
cursor: url(http://findicons.com/files/icons/1840/free_style/128/hand.png) 4 12, auto;
}
<div>
</div>
</div>
You can also use following style
li {
cursor: grabbing;
}
You can use one of the following:
li:hover
{
cursor: pointer;
}
or
li
{
cursor: pointer;
}
Working example 1:
li:hover
{
cursor: pointer;
}
<ul>
<li>foo</li>
<li>bar</li>
</ul>
Working example 2:
li
{
cursor: pointer;
}
<ul>
<li>foo</li>
<li>bar</li>
</ul>
</div>
You can use the below code
li:hover { cursor: pointer; }
