In the following example, I have 2 divs, one inside another, with two
different cursors.

<div id='outer' style='cursor:hand;width:300px;height:300px'>
<div id='inner' style='cursor:crosshair;width:100px; height:100px'
onclick="this.style.display='none'">
Click to remove this div.
</div>
</div>

When I click on the inner div, I would expect the cursor to change
from 'crosshair' to 'hand'. Instead, it stays as a 'crosshair' until
I move the mouse.
Is there anyway to get IE to change the cursor immediately after the
div is invisible?

One solution I googled is using window.resizeBy(1,0) and
window.resizeBy(-1,0).
This solution is not practical because
1. It doesn't work if the browser has multiple tabs. and
2. An access violation occurs if the mouse is down.

You might try making the following change to your "onclick" event:

onclick="this.style.display='none';this.style.curs or='hand'">

Good luck,
