CSS endless rotation animation - css

Question

I want to make a rotation of my loading icon by CSS.
I have an icon and the following code:
<style>
#test {
width: 32px;
height: 32px;
background: url('refresh.png');
}
.rotating {
-webkit-transform: rotate(360deg);
-webkit-transition-duration: 1s;
-webkit-transition-delay: now;
-webkit-animation-timing-function: linear;
-webkit-animation-iteration-count: infinite;
}
</style>
<div id='test' class='rotating'></div>
But it doesn't work. How can the icon be rotated using CSS?

Answer 1

#-webkit-keyframes rotating /* Safari and Chrome */ {
from {
-webkit-transform: rotate(0deg);
-o-transform: rotate(0deg);
transform: rotate(0deg);
}
to {
-webkit-transform: rotate(360deg);
-o-transform: rotate(360deg);
transform: rotate(360deg);
}
}
#keyframes rotating {
from {
-ms-transform: rotate(0deg);
-moz-transform: rotate(0deg);
-webkit-transform: rotate(0deg);
-o-transform: rotate(0deg);
transform: rotate(0deg);
}
to {
-ms-transform: rotate(360deg);
-moz-transform: rotate(360deg);
-webkit-transform: rotate(360deg);
-o-transform: rotate(360deg);
transform: rotate(360deg);
}
}
.rotating {
-webkit-animation: rotating 2s linear infinite;
-moz-animation: rotating 2s linear infinite;
-ms-animation: rotating 2s linear infinite;
-o-animation: rotating 2s linear infinite;
animation: rotating 2s linear infinite;
}
<div
class="rotating"
style="width: 100px; height: 100px; line-height: 100px; text-align: center;"
>Rotate</div>

Answer 2

Working nice:
#test {
width: 11px;
height: 14px;
background: url('data:image/gif;base64,R0lGOD lhCwAOAMQfAP////7+/vj4+Hh4eHd3d/v7+/Dw8HV1dfLy8ubm5vX19e3t7fr 6+nl5edra2nZ2dnx8fMHBwYODg/b29np6eujo6JGRkeHh4eTk5LCwsN3d3dfX 13Jycp2dnevr6////yH5BAEAAB8ALAAAAAALAA4AAAVq4NFw1DNAX/o9imAsB tKpxKRd1+YEWUoIiUoiEWEAApIDMLGoRCyWiKThenkwDgeGMiggDLEXQkDoTh CKNLpQDgjeAsY7MHgECgx8YR8oHwNHfwADBACGh4EDA4iGAYAEBAcQIg0Dk gcEIQA7');
}
#-webkit-keyframes rotating {

-webkit-transform: rotate(0deg);
}

}
.rotating {

Infinite rotation animation in CSS
/* ENDLESS ROTATE */
.rotate{
animation: rotate 1.5s linear infinite;
}
#keyframes rotate{
to{ transform: rotate(360deg); }
}
/* SPINNER JUST FOR DEMO */
.spinner{
display:inline-block; width: 50px; height: 50px;
border-radius: 50%;
box-shadow: inset -2px 0 0 2px #0bf;
}
<span class="spinner rotate"></span>

Answer 4

Without any prefixes, e.g. at it's simplest:
.loading-spinner {
animation: rotate 1.5s linear infinite;
}
#keyframes rotate {
to {
transform: rotate(360deg);
}
}

Answer 5

Works in all modern browsers
.rotate{
animation: loading 3s linear infinite;
#keyframes loading {
0% {
transform: rotate(0);
}
100% {
transform: rotate(360deg);
}
}
}

Answer 6

#keyframes rotate {
100% {
transform: rotate(1turn);
}
}
div{
animation: rotate 4s linear infinite;
}

Answer 7

Simply Try This. Works fine
#-webkit-keyframes loading {
from {
-webkit-transform: rotate(0deg);
}
to {
-webkit-transform: rotate(360deg);
}
}
#-moz-keyframes loading {
from {
-moz-transform: rotate(0deg);
}
to {
-moz-transform: rotate(360deg);
}
}
#loading {
width: 16px;
height: 16px;
-webkit-animation: loading 2s linear infinite;
-moz-animation: loading 2s linear infinite;
}
<div class="loading-test">
<svg id="loading" aria-hidden="true" focusable="false" role="presentation" class="icon icon-spinner" viewBox="0 0 20 20"><path d="M7.229 1.173a9.25 9.25 0 1 0 11.655 11.412 1.25 1.25 0 1 0-2.4-.698 6.75 6.75 0 1 1-8.506-8.329 1.25 1.25 0 1 0-.75-2.385z" fill="#919EAB"/></svg>
</div>

Rotation on add class .active
.myClassName.active {
-webkit-animation: spin 4s linear infinite;
-moz-animation: spin 4s linear infinite;
animation: spin 4s linear infinite;
}
#-moz-keyframes spin {
100% {
-moz-transform: rotate(360deg);
}
}
#-webkit-keyframes spin {
100% {
-webkit-transform: rotate(360deg);
}
}
#keyframes spin {
100% {
-webkit-transform: rotate(360deg);
transform: rotate(360deg);
}
}

height:200px;
width:200px;
-webkit-animation: spin 2s infinite linear;
}
#-webkit-keyframes spin {

</body>

Answer 10

the easiest way to do it is using font awesome icons by adding the "fa-spin" class. for example:
<i class="fas fa-spinner fa-3x fa-spin"></i>
you can save some lines of code but of course you are limited to the icons from font awesome. I always use it for loading spinners
here you have the documentation from font awesome:
