Perfect stage of jQuery Passwords Project

I have a question pertaining to the Perfect stage of the Passwords jQuery project. I'm wondering how the change of cursor denoting a link can be kept from happening when the submit button is disabled.

Originally thought that could be managed in CSS but not so sure now, don't think it's possible through CSS. Seems like jQuery would be needed. Is that correct? Any thoughts on how this would accomplished?

Something like

input[type="submit"]:disabled { cursor: wait; };

other cursor options

Ahh so it is CSS! I need to reinforce my understanding of attribute selectors. I do understand the snippet. Didn't realize or forgot there was a pseudo class of disabled, and property of cursor. Will look into those as well. Thanks Andrew.
