Html5 ... switching the mouse cursor off when in focus over the playfield
Switching it on when playfield is left.
How?
Inside the monkey code?
Or in php/html code?

What would be the best solution?

Thanks for advice.

PS: I have found a 4 year old thread here about a similar topic. Better solution today?

There are HideMouse and ShowMouse commands in the latest versions of Monkey/Mojo. Call them from the OnUpdate method as required. Example:

Strict

Import mojo

Function Main:Int()
	New MyApp
	Return 0
End Function

Class MyApp Extends App
	
	Field pfX:Int = 10, pfY:Int = 10
	Field pfWidth:Int = 320, pfHeight:Int = 200
	
	Field my:Int, mx:Int
	Field mouseHidden:Bool
	
	Method OnCreate:Int ()
		SetUpdateRate 60
		Return 0
	End

	Method OnUpdate:Int()
	
		mx = MouseX()
		my = MouseY()
		
		If (mx >= pfX) And (mx <= (pfX + pfWidth)) And (my >= pfY) And (my <= (pfY + pfHeight))
			If Not mouseHidden
				HideMouse()
				mouseHidden = True
			Endif
		Else
			If mouseHidden
				ShowMouse()
				mouseHidden = False
			Endif	
		Endif		
		
		Return 0
	End

	Method OnRender:Int ()
	
		Cls 0, 0, 0
		SetColor 255, 0, 0
		DrawRect pfX, pfY, pfWidth, pfHeight
	
		Return 0
		
	End

End

Thank you, impixi. Especially for showing the example.
