... only on here... I have no cursor. It's ok until I make a (frequent) mistake... any ideas how to get it back?

Can't help you, sorry, I'm too old to manage technology. Haven't you got a 5-10 year old grandchild to do it? They're the experts. :lol:

Have you tried in a different browser?
Have you tried clearing your browser cache?

If it’s a css issue and you’re on a windows desktop, there’s a convoluted workaround you can do to inject custom css into the control to give yourself a cursor again but it’s painful since you have to do it on the every page refresh.

Huh. I've just noticed (whilst posting in see thread) that I have no curser either.

Oooh, no it's back.

That was weird.

But shows it's a 'something' that's going on, no?

Using Chrome on my phone for what it's worth...

Have you tried switching it off and back on again? ; ) Too much Guinness, Sir? *grins*

In all honesty...it's more likely your device and its updates munging things than the website code. Reboot it.
Browser caches also suck - as per PaulB2's comment, dump your caches; I say dump them often.

Oh yeah - @ PaulB2 - Tampermonkey FTW ; ) Less pain, more gain.
