I have a question regarding the CSS vendor prefixes for transition.

This source states that “you need to use all the usual prefixes to make this work in all browsers (-o-, -webkit-, -moz-, -ms-)”.

That page only shows the -webkit- and -moz- prefixes and claims that IE 10+, FF 16+ and Opera 12.1+ can read the prefix free version.

In the code of Twitter Bootstrap, there is always exists a -webkit-, -moz- and -o- prefixed version in addition to the un-prefixed version.

What prefixes should I use?

    http://caniuse.com/#search=transition says that you need -webkit- and plain property for modern browsers.

    -webkit-transition: all .5s ease;
transition: all .5s ease;

    But it will be no problem if you add all of them, just be sure that property without prefix is the last one.

    Edit: as said in comment below, if you click on “All versions” you can see when each browser dropped prefix. For now it is better to use -moz- and -o- also.

    Edit May 2015: I highly recommend use Autoprefixer as step on your build process (like Gulp/Grunt task) or as plugin to your code editor. It provides automatic prefixing on caniuse.com browser support stats.

    Edit 2019: No need in prefixes and less and less need in Autoprefixer, future is nice 🙂
