we have made the animated gears with CSS3. The result looks very nice. I have used CSS3 keyframes, animation and transforms (rotate) in order to achieve this result. Please pay attention – current demo works well in Firefox and Chrome / Safari (webkit).
HTML Markup:
<div class="container">
<div class="gear" id="gear1"></div>
<div class="gear" id="gear2"></div>
<div class="gear" id="gear3"></div>
<div class="gear" id="gear4"></div>
<div class="gear" id="gear5"></div>
<div class="gear" id="gear6"></div>
<div class="gear" id="gear7"></div>
</div>
Css Style:
/* CSS3 keyframes */
@-webkit-keyframes ckw {
0% {
-moz-transform: rotate(0deg);
-webkit-transform: rotate(0deg);
}
100% {
-moz-transform: rotate(360deg);
-webkit-transform: rotate(360deg);
}
}
@-moz-keyframes ckw {
0% {
-moz-transform: rotate(0deg);
-webkit-transform: rotate(0deg);
}
100% {
-moz-transform: rotate(360deg);
-webkit-transform: rotate(360deg);
}
}
@-webkit-keyframes cckw {
0% {
-moz-transform: rotate(360deg);
-webkit-transform: rotate(360deg);
}
100% {
-moz-transform: rotate(0deg);
-webkit-transform: rotate(0deg);
}
}
@-moz-keyframes cckw {
0% {
-moz-transform: rotate(360deg);
-webkit-transform: rotate(360deg);
}
100% {
