Why won't this navbar work in Internet Explorer - css

I'm having an issue with my nav bar in internet explorer and I don't know how to solve it and have been trying to for hours. Below is the code that I think is the problem.
nav {
position: absolute;
text-align: left;
top: 100%;
left: 0;
background: var(--background);
width: 100%;
transform: scale(1, 0);
transform-origin: top;
transition: transform 400ms ease-in-out;
}

Internet Explorer does not support CSS variables.
You might be able to use a polyfill to work around the limitation.

Strange CSS3 animation issue in IE11 and Edge

I made a CSS3 animation, it works well in Firefox and Chrome, but it behaves differently in IE11 and Edge.
I couldn't fix the issue because it's hard to debug CSS3 Animation using IE Developer Tools. This issue also occurs on Edge (But i think my Edge version is outdated so please try to reproduce this issue only in IE11. The fix will probably work on both).
Here is how i want the animation to look (Works on Chrome/Firefox):
Here is how it animates differently on IE11:
Code:
HTML:
<div class="block"></div>
<span>click</span>
CSS:
span {
width: 50px;
height: 50px;
background: red;
font-size: 50px;
}
.block {
position: fixed;
height: 0%;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
top: auto;
display: block;
background-color: #0B0B0B;
z-index: 99999;
animation-fill-mode: both;
animation-duration: 2s;
animation-timing-function: ease-in-out;
}
.animate-up {
animation-name: overlayEffectUp;
}
#keyframes overlayEffectUp {
0% {
bottom: 0;
top: auto;
height: 0%;
}
35%,
65% {
height: 100%;
}
100% {
bottom: auto;
top: 0;
height: 0%;
}
}
JavaScript (With jQuery):
$('span').on('click', function() {
$('.block').addClass('animate-up')
})
Here is the Demo link: https://jsfiddle.net/zoq9h7xp/3/
Please, any help would be appreciated!
Edge seems to be buggy with position: fixed. Supposedly the switch between top: 0 and top: auto (and same story with the bottom property) causes this behaviour.
If you must maintain the fixed position, you can try to animate with the transform property. Change your rulesets as follow:
#keyframes overlayEffectUp {
0% {
transform: translateY(100%); // totally offscreen
}
35%,
65% {
transform: translateY(0%); // totally on screen from bottom
}
100% {
transform: translateY(-100%); // totally off screen again to top
}
}
.block {
position: fixed;
top:0;
bottom:0;
transform: translateY(100%);
width: 100%;
background-color: #0B0B0B;
z-index: 99999;
animation-fill-mode: both;
animation-duration: 2s;
animation-timing-function: ease-in-out;
}
Hope this helps.

css animation doesn't display properly in edge

So I'm having some trouble with a css animation "underline from center" to be precise.
It displays properly in every browser except edge.
I'm getting small dots underneath the links where the animation displays itself (see picture)
dots underneath links in navbar
enter code here`
.hvr-underline-from-center {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
-webkit-transform: perspective(1px) translateZ(0);
transform: perspective(1px) translateZ(0);
box-shadow: 0 0 1px transparent;
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;
}
.hvr-underline-from-center:before {
content: "";
position: absolute;
z-index: -1;
left: 50%;
right: 50%;
bottom: 0;
background: #b80c0c;
height: 4px;
-webkit-transition-property: left, right;
transition-property: left, right;
-webkit-transition-duration: 0.1s;

}
.hvr-underline-from-center:hover:before, .hvr-underline-from-center:focus:before, .hvr-underline-from-center:active:before {
left: 0;
right: 0;
}
enter code here`
Thanks for the help
This is not an Edge issue. It works on Edge, depending on the text (and maybe also the density of your screen). This type of thing also happens sometime on Firefox and even Chrome.
It's a rounding error : that's why on your picture you've got dot below some menu items but not all.
Try adding a visibility hidden, it'll do the trick.
Also for this type of thing animating transform: scaleX if better performance wise than animating an item width, (and an item with a scaleX(0) will always have a length of 0 no rounding error can happen here)

Smooth CSS rotate animation on hover

I've create a button, and I want it to rotate 360deg on mouse hover, and rotate backwords 360deg on hover off. So far it work well, but if you go slowly towards it with the mouse, it flickers.
Here's the short version of the code:
.btn {
display: block;
margin: 60px auto;
width: 250px;
padding: 15px;
position: relative;
color: #3498db;
font-weight: 300;
font-size: 24px;
text-decoration: none;
border: 5px solid #3498db;
transform: rotate(360deg);
transition: all 0.5s;
transition-timing-function: cubic-bezier(1, 0.8, 0.5, 1);
}
.btn-rotate:hover {
transform: rotate(0deg);
transition-delay: 0;
transition: all 0.5s;
}
I am a button!
for full code, check the codpen demo http://codepen.io/andornagy/pen/ojBNZx
The flicker issue is happening because, when you hover on the element, the elements start to rotate. After rotating some x degree, the element would've rotated to certain degree and the mouse/cursor is not anymore on the element.
This is the reason the flicker is happening.
Comparing to the above one, I feel using wrapper (div) and analyzed how much width we may need, we set that to div. On div:hover element, we can perform the transition. It gives better result compared to now.
Here is the fiddle
.buttonHolder {
padding: 50px;
}
.buttonHolder:hover .btn-rotate {
transform: rotate(360deg);
transition-delay: 0;
transition: all 0.6s;
}
Here's an idea where it adds an extra pseudo element only when you're hovering :
Demo
.btn:after {
content: '';
width: 300px;
height: 150px;
display: none;
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
border-radius: 50%;
-webkit-transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
}
.btn:hover:after {
display: block;
}
Gave it a bit of background color, just so it's better visible what's going on...
For the most control, I'd resort to some JavaScript though.

Does Webkit CSS-Animate pseudo-elements?

I'm working on a new overlay screen technique for a site that I'm working on. I want to leverage animation to CSS because it is easier, and faster than JavaScript animations. I'm doing something simple, but I'm having trouble with webkit-based browsers like Chrome and Safari.
This is the code I'm using:
body:after {
content: '';
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: #000;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
z-index: -1;
transition-duration: .5s;
-webkit-transition-duration: .5s;
opacity: 0;
}
body.dimmed:after {
z-index: 9999;
opacity: .7;
}
AS you can see, it uses the after pseudo-element, and based on the body class it animates it to a show it or hide it. It works well on Firefox, but not on Chrome or safari. On these browsers the animation does not happen, and the change is instantaneous, which is not what I want. If you apply the same CSS to the body, rather than the pseudo-element, the animation happens:
body {
content: '';
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: #000;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
z-index: -1;
transition-duration: .5s;
-webkit-transition-duration: .5s;
opacity: 0;
}
body.dimmed {
z-index: 9999;
opacity: .7;
}
This makes me think that transitions do not apply to pseudo-elements on Chrome. Should this be reported as a bug?
It's a known bug, known for years already:
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23209
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=54699
BTW, at the moment you could try to use this technique: http://kizu.ru/en/pseudos/ — by triggering the transition on the element itself and then inheriting the value to the pseudo-element. That won't work for every property (for opacity for example), but you could weork around with that using some imagination.

CSS3 perspective in 3D

I'm having a problem with CSS 3D perspective property.
<figure>
<img src="http://www.saintbioz.fr/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/paysage-montagneux.jpg" width="512" height="384" alt="Landscape" />
<figcaption>Summer in the mountains</figcaption>
</figure>
I just want to animate the figcaption at :hover to perform a folding-down effect (like http://davidwalsh.name/demo/folding-animation.php) from -90deg to 0deg , considering that -90deg represent the block flatten (and so not visible)
/** vendor prefixes have been removed for better readability **/
figure {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
line-height: 0;
perspective: 300px;
}
figcaption {
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.2);
padding: 20px 10px;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
left: 0;
transition-property: all;
transition-duration: 500ms;
transform: rotateX(-123deg);
transform-origin: top;
}
figure img:hover + figcaption {
transform: rotateX(0deg);
}
The problem is that perspective does not give the same render for Chrome and Firefox.
I had to set manually the figcaption default transform to rotateX(-123deg); depending of the perspective value which is 500px, and it works well on Chrome, but not on Firefox.
Theoretically, it should be -90deg when not :hover and 0deg when :hover, but seems that the perspective attribute changes the length of the depth field and so -90deg does not works anymore.
I wonder what are the best practices when playing with perspective and rotate in order to make it works well on all recent browsers ?
Best regards.
PS: Just copy/paste the HTML & CSS and try it in Chrome and FF, you should immediately see what's wrong ;)
I know it won't be helpful, but personnaly I tried some experiments with perspective and each browser render the perspective in a different way. Some browsers don't support the perspective. So, your application won't be accesible to everyone, maybe you should use another technology until all of the main browsers are fully compliant with the perspective.
Probably it's too late for this answer to be useful.
Anyway, the best way to make the element invisible is to keep the angle at 90deg, but set the perspective origin to be just above it. (No need to figure the exact angle that will get the desired effect)
figure {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
line-height: 0;
perspective: 300px;
perspective-origin: top center; /* added this setting */
}
figcaption {
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.2);
padding: 20px 10px;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
left: 0;
transition-property: all;
transition-duration: 2s;
transform: rotateX(-90deg);
transform-origin: top;
}
figure img:hover + figcaption {
transform: rotateX(0deg);
}
<figure>
<img src="http://www.saintbioz.fr/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/paysage-montagneux.jpg" width="512" height="384" alt="Landscape" />
