CSS Transitions
CSS transitions allows you to change property values smoothly, over a given duration.
Mouse over the element below to see a CSS transition effect:

In this chapter you will learn about the following properties:
transition
transition-delay
transition-duration
transition-property
transition-timing-function
Browser Support for Transitions

How to Use CSS Transitions?
To create a transition effect, you must specify two things:
- the CSS property you want to add an effect to
- the duration of the effect
Note: If the duration part is not specified, the transition will have no effect, because the default value is 0.
The following example shows a 100px * 100px red <div> element. The <div>
element has also specified a transition effect for the width property, with a duration of 2 seconds:
Example
div
{
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
background: red;
transition: width 2s;
}
The transition effect will start when the specified CSS property (width) changes value.
Now, let us specify a new value for the width property when a user mouses over the <div> element:
Notice that when the cursor mouses out of the element, it will gradually change back to its original style.
Change Several Property Values
The following example adds a transition effect for both the width and height property, with a duration
of 2 seconds for the width and 4 seconds for the height:
Example
div
{
transition: width 2s, height 4s;
}

Specify the Speed Curve of the Transition
The transition-timing-function
property specifies the speed curve of the transition effect.
The transition-timing-function property can have the following values:
ease
– specifies a transition effect with a slow start, then fast, then end slowly (this is default)linear
– specifies a transition effect with the same speed from start to endease-in
– specifies a transition effect with a slow startease-out
– specifies a transition effect with a slow endease-in-out
– specifies a transition effect with a slow start and endcubic-bezier(n,n,n,n)
– lets you define your own values in a cubic-bezier function
The following example shows some of the different speed curves that can be used:
Delay the Transition Effect
The transition-delay
property specifies a delay (in seconds) for the transition effect.
The following example has a 1 second delay before starting:
Example
div {
transition-delay: 1s;
}

Transition + Transformation
The following example adds a transition effect to the transformation:
Example
div {
transition:
width 2s, height 2s, transform 2s;
}

More Transition Examples
The CSS transition properties can be specified one by one, like this:
Example
div
{
transition-property: width;
transition-duration: 2s;
transition-timing-function: linear;
transition-delay: 1s;
}

or by using the shorthand property transition
:
Example
div
{
transition: width 2s linear 1s;
}

Test Yourself With Exercises
Exercise:
Add a 2 second transition effect for width changes of the <div> element.
<style> div { width: 100px; height: 100px; background: red; : ; } div:hover { width: 300px; } </style> <body> <div>This is a div</div> </body>
