Flip animation not working on safari - css

Question

I have a flip animation on my website. It works on every browser on PC and Android, but does not work on safari. It will flip and you see a flash of the "back" card and then it goes away and you just get a white square. I think I set the -webkit- like it is supposed to be set but for some reason it just isn't working. Does anyone have any ideas?
HTML:
<div class="card">
<div class="face front hover">
<img src="images/pawprints_edit.png" width="300" height="180" alt="sign up for al-van newsletter" id="news-img" class="d-inline-block col-md-12 img-fluid my-5 pt-2" />
<p id="thanks" class="text-center"></p>
</div>
<div class="face back">
<form name="mailForm" class="mail-form" autocomplete="on" novalidate>
<div class="form-group mb-0 px-2">
<label for="name">Name:</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control form-control-sm" id="name" placeholder="John Doe">
</div>
<div class="form-group mb-0 px-2">
<label for="email">Email Address:</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control form-control-sm" id="email" placeholder="yourname#domain.com">
</div>
<div class="form-group mb-0 px-2">
<label for="message">Please type your message:</label>
<textarea class="form-control form-control-sm" id="message" cols="30" rows="4"></textarea>
<input type="button" id="submit" value="Submit">
<input type="button" id="cancel" value="Cancel">
<p id="errorP" class="text-center"></p>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
/* form animation */
.scene {
width: 100%;
height: 300px!important;
perspective: 1000px;
-webkit-perspective: 1000px;
border: none;
}
.card {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
position: relative;
-webkit-transition: -webkit-transform 1s;
transition: transform 1s;
-webkit-transform-style: preserve-3d;
transform-style: preserve-3d;
border: none;
}
.face {
position: absolute;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
-webkit-backface-visibility: hidden;
backface-visibility: hidden;
}
.front {
background: #98b98a;;
-webkit-z-index: -1;
z-index: -1
}
.front.hover {
background: #98b98a;
-webkit-z-index: 2;
z-index: 2;
}
.back {
background: #4c87a9;
-webkit-transform: rotateY(180deg);
transform: rotateY(180deg);
-webkit-z-index: 1;
z-index: 1;
}
.back [type=text]:hover {
cursor: text!important;
}
.card.is-flipped {
-webkit-transform: rotateY(180deg);
transform: rotateY(180deg);
}
.hover:hover {
cursor: pointer;
}
/* End animation */
and JS:
/* flip animation script */
function flip()
{
'use strict';
console.log("Flip is being triggered");
var card = document.querySelector(".card");
var face = document.querySelector(".front");
var name = document.getElementById("name");
var email = document.getElementById("email");
var errorP = document.getElementById("errorP");
if(card.removeEventListener)
{card.removeEventListener("click", flip, false);}
else if(card.detachEvent)
{card.detachEvent("onclick", flip);}
card.classList.toggle("is-flipped");
face.classList.toggle("hover");
name.style.background = "#fff";
email.style.background = "#fff";
errorP.style.display = "none";
}
/* Function to flip the card back over when canceled */
function cancelFlip()
{
'use strict';
console.log("Cancel has been activated");
var card = document.querySelector(".card");
var face = document.querySelector(".front");
card.classList.toggle("is-flipped");
face.classList.toggle("hover");
setTimeout(function(){if(card.addEventListener){card.addEventListener("click",flip,false);}else if(card.attachEvent){card.attachEvent("onclick",flip);}console.log("setTimeout was triggered");}, 500);
}
I am using a Boostrap 3 framework. JS is custom and CSS was taken from an online tutorial. The link to the site is: http://www.al-van.org/jake I'm developing on a windows platform and don't have an iPhone to test so I'm having my step-dad check it on his iPhone when I make changes. So far, nothing has been working.
UPDATE: it seems like the form is there, I'm able to click things and input text, but you cant actually see anything. It appears as a white square and nothing is visible. I moved the backface-visibility from .face to each .front and .back to see if that would make a difference. It seems it did not.

Answer 1

I found the issue. It seems that the .card class had a default background color which made the entire form white, washing out all of its components when flipped. When I removed this default background color and made it transparent. The issue was resolved.

Answer 2

add backface visibility to your class - .card.is-flipped, because you are using transform on that too
