So I've hit a brick wall with a very unique problem and can use any help.

I'm developing a display-only application for a client, a small in house
electronic billboard of sorts.  Using AIR, the app simply creates an HTML
instance and displays a series of HTML pages as determined by the client.
Works like a charm.

The problem is the cursor.  The app needs to be able to hide the cursor from
view.  I've tried several methods but the results are spotty.  Since AIR
doesn't support Mouse.hide() for some reason, I made a simple Flex app that
uses Mouse.hide() and I loaded that into my AIR app via an SWF Loader.

It works, EXCEPT when the web page being displayed is a full-screen SWF.
When the mouse is over the SWF, it is visible, but if I move it over to a
section of the screen not covered by the HTML component, it does indeed
disappear.  It's as if the SWF inside the HTML cuts a hole in the app and
just follows its own rules.

So I need to figure out either: how to make sure the cursor stays hidden, no
matter where it might be on the screen, OR, is it possible for AIR to move
the system cursor to a certain coordinate set, out of view?

Any help or direction would be appreciated.

Thanks!
