    Hi,

    As you can see at http://dante.swiftideas.net/shortcodes/icon-boxes/, Animated Icon Boxes section, when you hover the icon the only effect you get in Internet Explorer is a kind of mirror effect of the information in the face of the icon.
    That’s just in Internet Explorer, in Chrome all seems to work OK.

    Since I plan to put this Animated Icons Box in the site I’m building (www.peopleh2o.es), would you please provide help.

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    IE does not support CSS3 transitions therefore it wont work on it. Its not a bug just a browser limitation.

    Thanks

    Good afternoon Tahir,

    I am encountering the same problem – is there no work around to change the effect that causes the transition? If there is any alternative CSS that could be used would this correctly display the important information on the flip side of the animated icon box?

    Thanks,

    – Tom

    Hi guys,

    Can you let me know what Windows / Browser version you are using to see this issue, and I’ll check it out!

    Thanks,

    I’ve just checked out with 2 setups : Windows 8.1 / IE 11.0.9600.16476 and Windows Vista / IE10.
    The boxes won’t flip like they do in Chrome or Firefox.

    Bug or not, I think this is a shortcoming. I cannot sell a site built with this animation, sincemy customers do not have to know about CSS transitions, they just want everything to behave well in no matter which browser.

    Thank you.

    Hi, I assume you would have checked our demo prior to purchasing? Anyhow, I’m sure Ed will think of a solution 🙂

    I’m having the same issue, Obviously, because this is a browsers limitation issue. However, it is a shortcoming and when you read the compatibility list on themeforest and it says it’s IE compatible, I assume I don’t have to go check it on every browser that it is compatible.

    Anyway, that said I love the theme and it’s functions. I wanted to point out that in Opera the CSS3 transition does not work either. However, it has an acceptable degradation by showing the relevant content on the “flip” side. Is there a way to force a degradation on IE that shows the “relevant” side, which can be assumed to be the “flipped” side?

    Is there a way to make this work? From this article: http://davidwalsh.name/css-flip

    /* entire container, keeps perspective */
    .flip-container {
    	perspective: 1000;
    	transform-style: preserve-3d;
    }
    	/*  UPDATED! flip the pane when hovered */
    	.flip-container:hover .back {
    		transform: rotateY(0deg);
    	}
    	.flip-container:hover .front {
    	    transform: rotateY(180deg);
    	}
    
    .flip-container, .front, .back {
    	width: 320px;
    	height: 480px;
    }
    
    /* flip speed goes here */
    .flipper {
    	transition: 0.6s;
    	transform-style: preserve-3d;
    
    	position: relative;
    }
    
    /* hide back of pane during swap */
    .front, .back {
    	backface-visibility: hidden;
    	transition: 0.6s;
    	transform-style: preserve-3d;
    
    	position: absolute;
    	top: 0;
    	left: 0;
    }
    
    /*  UPDATED! front pane, placed above back */
    .front {
    	z-index: 2;
    	transform: rotateY(0deg);
    }
    
    /* back, initially hidden pane */
    .back {
    	transform: rotateY(-180deg);
    }
    
    /* 
    	Some vertical flip updates 
    */
    .vertical.flip-container {
    	position: relative;
    }
    
    	.vertical .back {
    		transform: rotateX(180deg);
    	}
    
    	.vertical.flip-container:hover .back {
    	    transform: rotateX(0deg);
    	}
    
    	.vertical.flip-container:hover .front {
    	    transform: rotateX(180deg);
    	}

    Hi,

    I’m having the same problem in Safari 5.1. – the boxes don’t animate correctly: They don’t reveal the contents of the box, only the front icon and heading flips horizontally so you can’t read the heading?

    Please let me know since you can’t use elements like these if they don’t display for all browsers.

    Thanks for the help

    Hey @k_grinder,

    What version of Dante are you running? We fixed this quite recently as far as we are aware?


    @anton123
    – Safari v5.1 is a known buggy browser, and used by less than 0.8% of users.

    We provide the option of fancy CSS3 animations incase you want to provide it to the masses, but in the case you want to maximise compatibility, then I would suggest choosing another icon box style.

    Hope that helps.

    – Ed
