Cursors for base appearance styles 🌟
The CSSWG resolved to use default cursors (pointer, grab, not-allowed, default) for interactive form controls styled with appearance: base.
The CSS Working Group (CSSWG) has settled the long-running debate over whether interactive form elements besides regular links should get cursor: pointer. Spoiler: they should.
For form controls with appearance: base, the rule is straightforward: pointer means “click me”.
How default cursors will be assigned:
pointer— goes to most interactive controls: buttons,<select>, options, checkboxes, radio buttons, and color pickers.grab— goes torangesliders.not-allowed— used fordisabledelements.default— used forreadonlyelements.
