Cursor

i'm having a problem with personilizing my cursor for my site... (are we allowed to do that?)

here's the code:

Code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.2">
<!--//

//Circling text trail- Tim Tilton
//Website: http://www.tempermedia.com/
//Visit http://www.dynamicdrive.com for this script and more

// your message here
var msg='Dynamic Drive!';

var font='Verdana,Arial';
var size=3; // up to seven
var color='#000000';

// This is not the rotation speed, its the reaction speed, keep low!
// Set this to 1 for just plain rotation w/out drag
var speed=.3;

// This is the rotation speed, set it negative if you want
// it to spin clockwise
var rotation=.2;

// Alter no variables past here!, unless you are good
//---------------------------------------------------

var ns=(document.layers);
var ie=(document.all);
var msg=msg.split('');
var n=msg.length;
var a=size*15;
var currStep=0;
var ymouse=0;
var xmouse=0;
var scrll=0;
var props="<font face="+font+" size="+size+" color="+color+">";

if (ie)
window.pageYOffset=0

// writes the message
   if (ns){
   for (i=0; i < n; i++)
      document.write('<layer name="nsmsg'+i+'" top=0 left=0 height='+a+' width='+a+'><center>'+props+msg[i]+'</font></center></layer>');
   }
   if (ie){
      document.write('<div id="outer" style="position:absolute;top:0px;left:0px"><div style="position:relative">');
      for (i=0; i < n; i++)
         document.write('<div id="iemsg" style="position:absolute;top:0px;left:0;height:'+a+';width:'+a+';text-align:center;font-weight:regular;cursor:default">'+props+msg[i]+'</font></div>');
         document.write('</div></div>');
   }
   (ns)?window.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEMOVE):0;

function Mouse(evnt){
   ymouse = (ns)?evnt.pageY+20-(window.pageYOffset):event.y; // y-position
   xmouse = (ns)?evnt.pageX+20:event.x-20; // x-position
}

if (ns||ie)
(ns)?window.onMouseMove=Mouse:document.onmousemove=Mouse;
y=new Array();
x=new Array();
Y=new Array();
X=new Array();
for (i=0; i < n; i++){
   y[i]=0;
   x[i]=0;
   Y[i]=0;
   X[i]=0;
}

function makecircle(){ // rotation properties
if (ie) outer.style.top=document.body.scrollTop;
currStep-=rotation;
   for (i=0; i < n; i++){ // makes the circle
      var d=(ns)?document.layers['nsmsg'+i]:iemsg[i].style;
      d.top=y[i]+a*Math.sin((currStep+i*1)/3.8)+window.pageYOffset-15;
      d.left=x[i]+a*Math.cos((currStep+i*1)/3.8)*2; // remove *2 for just a plain circle, not oval
   }
}

function drag(){ // makes the resistance
   scrll=(ns)?window.pageYOffset:0;
   y[0]=Math.round(Y[0]+=((ymouse)-Y[0])*speed);
   x[0]=Math.round(X[0]+=((xmouse)-X[0])*speed);
   for (var i=1; i < n; i++){
      y[i]=Math.round(Y[i]+=(y[i-1]-Y[i])*speed);
      x[i]=Math.round(X[i]+=(x[i-1]-X[i])*speed);

   }
   makecircle();
   // not rotation speed, leave at zero
   setTimeout('drag()',10);
}
if (ns||ie)window.onload=drag;

// -->
</SCRIPT>

but when i tried to put the code in, the cursor was still the same..
can somebody help me?

Well, I can read and understand that code, but I'm clueless as to where you should put it. But if you want to, you should know that all the lines with // and then text are just comments and are ignored by computers. They are just to help readers. When you are ready to put the code wherever you put it, you may want to take those lines out, just for a shorter code.
