Simple CSS Animation Loop – Fading In & Out "Loading" Text

animation, css

Solution

As King King said, you must add the browser specific prefix. This should cover most browsers:

@keyframes flickerAnimation {
  0%   { opacity:1; }
  50%  { opacity:0; }
  100% { opacity:1; }
}
@-o-keyframes flickerAnimation{
  0%   { opacity:1; }
  50%  { opacity:0; }
  100% { opacity:1; }
}
@-moz-keyframes flickerAnimation{
  0%   { opacity:1; }
  50%  { opacity:0; }
  100% { opacity:1; }
}
@-webkit-keyframes flickerAnimation{
  0%   { opacity:1; }
  50%  { opacity:0; }
  100% { opacity:1; }
}
.animate-flicker {
   -webkit-animation: flickerAnimation 1s infinite;
   -moz-animation: flickerAnimation 1s infinite;
   -o-animation: flickerAnimation 1s infinite;
    animation: flickerAnimation 1s infinite;
}

<div class="animate-flicker">Loading...</div>

Problem

Without Javascript, I'd like to make a simple looping CSS animation class that fades text in and out, infinitely. I don't know a lot about CSS animations, so I haven't figured it out yet, but here's how far I've gotten: ``` @keyframes flickerAnimation { /* flame pulses */ 0% { opacity:1; } 50% { opacity:0; } 100% { opacity:1; } } .animate-flicker { opacity:1; animation: flickerAnimation 1s infinite; } ```
