cursor vs. pointer

Strange question, but I have a few buttons that when you click on them, they take you to various pages in my document. This actually works fine, but I'm worried that users won't think to click them in the first place, because when you move your mouse over these buttons, a cursor shows up (like it thinks it's a text field), rather than a pointer arrow. How can I get the pointer arrow instead?

On a text field the cursor changes to an I-beam. On a button the cursor changes to a pointing finger. Are you seeing somthing different?
