I'm using the Foundation framework on a project & it's Top Bar feature for navigation allows for drop-down navigation to appear on hover.
During the hover event it adds a .hover class to the relevant element, therefore the changes in CSS pop into sight rather than animating by way of a smooth transition.
This got me thinking. Is it possible to animate (via transitions or similar) the changes in CSS definitions?
Take this example. Here is our default element:
<div class="a-box">Some content</div>
And it's default CSS:
.a-box {
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
background: red;
}
On hover the framework (which I do not wish to edit the core file to keep it clean for updates) adds the hover class. Making our element now look like this:
<div class="a-box hover">Some content</div>
Here could be some CSS for the hovered element:
.a-box.hover {
width: 400px;
// I thought perhaps adding the following would work but it doesn't appear to
-webkit-transition: all 200ms ease;
-moz-transition: all 200ms ease;
-ms-transition: all 200ms ease;
transition: all 200ms ease;
}
I'd be keen to hear others POV on this! I'm not sure if this is a duplicate, but all the posts I've read relate to some form of jQuery animation.
You aren't far off the mark, here is a working example.
The main error in your example is that you have
<div class="my-box hover">Some content</div>
But your CSS is looking for a-box not my-box.
As a habit, I normally define the animation on the simplest (most general) selector for the element and then any additional selectors will benefit from it.
.my-box {
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
background: red;
-webkit-transition: all 200ms ease;
-moz-transition: all 200ms ease;
-ms-transition: all 200ms ease;
transition: all 200ms ease;
}
.my-box.hover {
width: 400px;
}

I have two col-md-6 class and each contains a button in it, upon clicking, im using jQuery to toggleClass() of one between col-md-6 and col-md-12 and hide/show the other. I also use CSS transition to animate the toggling, but it would work for one class and if I click the other button, the transition is not working.
Does multiple class selector cause issue with transitions?
.hello, .bye{
-webkit-transition: width 500ms;
-moz-transition: width 500ms;
-o-transition: width 500ms;
transition: width 500ms;
}
Here's the problem in jsfiddle
Your question is a little vague, so I took it upon myself and made some necessary changes to your code, so that the end result will resemble a lot what you (most likely) have in your mind.
CSS Notes:
To avoid having #btn1 and #btn2 overflow .hello and .bye respectively, you need to use overflow: hidden.
To avoid having .hello and .bye wrapping during the transition if there's not enough room for both, you need to use: padding: 0.
If you want your buttons to remain at the exact position they were (15px indented), use: margin-left: 15px.
CSS Code:
.hello,
.bye {
padding: 0;
overflow: hidden;
-webkit-transition: width 500ms;
-moz-transition: width 500ms;
-o-transition: width 500ms;
transition: width 500ms;
}
#btn1,
#btn2 {
margin-left: 15px;
}
JS Notes:
Your code is kind of inefficient as you basically repeat the same code over and over, so I created a function for you that can be used for both buttons.
JS Code:

I have three divs on the same line. You can check the example here: http://yoyo.ro/abw just scroll to the bottom of the page to the three boxes: Made to Measure, Instagram and Video Tracking.
When I click the left one, I want the other two to slide to the right and some text to appear. I tried to do it, but it seems that I complicated it so much and it isn't even smooth.
function hideTest(){
$(".instagram").addClass("slideout");
$(".videotracking").addClass("slideout");
$(".instagram").animate({left:"150%"},500);
$(".videotracking").animate({left:"150%"},500);
}
function showTest(){
$(".instagram").animate({left:"33.3%"},500);
$(".videotracking").animate({left:"66.6%"},500);
$(".instagram").removeClass("slideout");
$(".videotracking").removeClass("slideout");
}
$(".madetomeasure").on('click',function(){
var testwidth = $(this).find(".vc_btn3-container").width();
$(this).find(".vc_btn3-container").css("width", testwidth);
if(!$(this).hasClass("openslide")){
hideTest();
$(".madetomeasure").addClass("openslide");
$(this).find(".txtbox").animate({left:0},500);}
else {
$(this).find(".txtbox").animate({left:"-100%"},500);
$(".madetomeasure").removeClass("openslide");
showTest();
}
});
here is the css relevant to the JS
.txtbox{
-webkit-transition: all 0.3s ease-out;
-moz-transition: all 0.3s ease-out;
-o-transition: all 0.3s ease-out;
transition: all 0.3s ease-out;
width: 66.5%;
display:none;
left:-100%;
padding:0px 15px;
float:left;
position:relative;}
.instagram, .videotracking{position:static;}
.instagram {left:33.3%;}
.videotracking{left:66.5%;}
.instagram.slideout{position:absolute;}
.videotracking.slideout{position:absolute;}
.madetomeasure .button{
z-index:1;
height:300px;
background: url(http://yoyo.ro/abw/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/instagram.jpg) 100% 30% !important;
border: none !important;}
.madetomeasure.openslide {width:100%;}
.madetomeasure.openslide .wpb_wrapper {display:flex;}
.madetomeasure.openslide .txtbox {display:block;}
Thank you so much for the patience... :) I really appreciate it
As far as I know, your problem of smoothness is because:
jQuery change the inline styling of the animated element per frame. That is a lot of work and you can actually see the action if you inspect your element when it's animating.
CSS does poorly on animating left and right. There are many articles about this but here's one if you don't want to search: https://css-tricks.com/tale-of-animation-performance/
The Solution
Fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/kv5twc64/1/
The solution is very common, and is used by many CSS libraries, a trick using .active, CSS animation and some JS.
Here I used the transition property for .card:
.card {
display:inline-block;
float:left;
max-width:33.333%;
position:relative;
cursor: pointer;
transition: 0.5s all ease-out;
}
If you don't know, transition will create a tweening effect when the elements' property has changed.
And here is the trick: By using ~ selecting the siblings in CSS and the transform property:
.card.active .desc {
transform: translateX(0);
}
.card.active ~.card {
transform: translateX(66.666vw);
}
There are several upsides on using CSS in this case:
You can simplify your JS. The JS became:
$(function(){
$(".card").eq(0).click(function(){
$(this).toggleClass("active");
})
})
You can improve webpage performance
You can have more choices on (simple) easing functions in CSS (jQuery only offers "swing" by default). Check this out: http://easings.net You can do something like this:
transition: all 600ms cubic-bezier(0.77, 0, 0.175, 1);
Hope this can help. But the lesson here is: Use CSS rather than JS when you can!
P.S. 66.666vw means 2/3 the width of the viewport width.
I've been working on a custom context menu for a table on one of my views in an angular app. The idea is to display a hidden, absolutely-position div on right click of any particular row in this table.
I think the event is returning the correct clientX and clientY, but where I'm running into trouble is when I try to position this hidden div to the coordinates of the right-click event. What I'm using, right now, is this:
$('.toggled-options-status-change').css({
top: event.clientX,
left: event.clientY
}).show();
where .toggled-options-status-change is the class name of the hidden div.
What's basically happening is that the div is being position is seeming random spots, so it can't simply be fixed by decremented the top and left positions be constant values.
It's hard for me to tell what's going on, and I wish I could share a fiddle or something with you guys. What I'm hoping is that someone has come across an issue like this before and knows a direction to go and investigate further.
Edit - CSS
.toggled-options-status-change {
position: absolute;
display: none;
}
.off-canvas-wrap {
-webkit-backface-visibility: hidden;
position: relative;
width: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
.inner-wrap {
-webkit-backface-visibility: hidden;
position: relative;
width: 100%;
-webkit-transition: -webkit-transform 500ms ease;
-moz-transition: -moz-transform 500ms ease;
-ms-transition: -ms-transform 500ms ease;
-o-transition: -o-transform 500ms ease;
transition: transform 500ms ease;
}
Edit - HTML
relevant html outline:
<html>
<body>
<div class="off-canvas-wrap">
<div class="inner-wrap">
<div ng-view>
...
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Almost always with these sorts of things, for me at least, the answer is exceedingly simple and makes me look like a fool for missing it the first time around. Oh well, it's nice to figure it out regardless.
top should be clientY, not clientX, and vice versa. omg
Basically, I have a page made up of five vertical stripes of different colors. These will eventually be links to different sections or something like that.
Check out this fiddle to get a general idea of what I'm talking about: http://jsfiddle.net/nolbear/4fea3/
Here's my JavaScript:
$('#banner1').hover(function() {
$(this).toggleClass('forty');
$('#banner2').toggleClass('twenty');
$('#banner3').toggleClass('twenty');
$('#banner4').toggleClass('ten');
$('#banner5').toggleClass('ten');
});
I'm trying to get it so that when you hover over the top stripe, it becomes larger, and all the other stripes get smaller to compensate. The stripes should take up the entire height of the page at all times (that's why I'm using percentages).
I don't understand why the code I've written isn't working, I've taken it directly from other StackOverflow questions that have been answered and it still won't work for me.
The first problem is that you didn't set jQuery in your fiddle
Secondary, you set the height by id which overrides the class values so instead I styled them by class.
http://jsfiddle.net/4fea3/4/
<div id="banner1" class="banner">
</div>
<div id="banner2" class="banner">
</div>
<div id="banner3" class="banner">
</div>
<div id="banner4" class="banner">
</div>
<div id="banner5" class="banner">
</div>
.banner {
width: 100%;
height: 20%;
transition: all 0.2s ease 0.0s;
-moz-transition: all 0.2s ease 0.0s;
-webkit-transition: all 0.2s ease 0.0s;
-o-transition: all 0.2s ease 0.0s;
-ms-transition: all 0.2s ease 0.0s;
overflow: hidden;
}
Your code is working, it's just the css that is not working. You've applied height: 20% to each banner, and then height: x% to each css class that you wish to change the height of the banners. Unfortunately the first height: 20% will override this. I've used !important to fix it in the fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/4fea3/3/
Ideally you would avoid the !important and update your styling to override correctly when the classes are added.
I am trying to redo the a tutorial I had posted links to in previous question to have as much HTML5 and CSS3 code. I read in some online article's that in HTML5 they are trying to get rid of the idea of Div tags, rather they are pushing for something known as section. Is that a correct observation. For example I have this section of code from the above tutorial.
https://skitch.com/android86/r67ey/dreamweaver
and what I am interested to know if I should be using div tags in my HTML5 code as well or is there a better way to do it rather than using Div's?
What I have in my HTML5 code at present is the following.

Thanks for the group's valuable input.
a proof of concept for a sliding link over content (with display: block) on hover, using CSS3 transitions only.
NOTICE: this is a webkit (safari & chrome) only syntax, for the syntax for the rest of the browsers go here: http://css3.bradshawenterprises.com/transitions/
a simple element, with the following style:
a {
z-index: 100;
position: fixed;
-webkit-transition: all 1s ease-in-out;
display: block;
background-color: black;
width: 100%;
height: 500px; }
and the hover state style:
a:hover { height: 700px; }
The code submitted looks good, however I would include the extra lines to cover Firefox and Opera.
-moz-transition: all 1s ease-in-out;
-o-transition: all 1s ease-in-out;
transition: all 1s ease-in-out;
You can then use Modernizr (http://www.modernizr.com/) to cover all browsers with backup Javascript.
I would use something like this:
a.slideDown {
z-index: 100;
position: fixed;
display: block;
background-color: black;
width: 100%;
height: 500px;
-webkit-transition: top .2s ease;
-moz-transition: top .2s ease;
-o-transition: top .2s ease;
transition: top .2s ease;
top:5px;
}
a:hover.slideDown {
top:495px;
}
If you are including CSS3 as part of HTML5 (which you have to to allow animation!), have a look at: http://css3.bradshawenterprises.com/sliding/ . The jQuery isn't necessary, you could use the :target pseudo element instead.
For your case, just set a transition on the element, then change the height, or top value using the target selector.
It's probably around 4 lines of code if you only want it to work in newer browsers.
I'd agree with the comments about using CSS3 for transitions. I used this on a portfolio site and it looks fairly good. It's just a couple lines of code and if the browser doesn't support the transitions it will still display the content on hover, just without the animation.
