Question

i want rotation animation on a image present in a div via pure CSS3 animation triggered when the image is clicked.
the animation shuld be for specific duration.

Answer 1

The one solution I can think of for triggering the rotation on click would be to use the checkbox hack and keyframe animations – see DEMO

HTML used:

<div class='img-container'>
    <input type='checkbox' name='t' id='t'><label for='t'></label>
    <img src='http://imgsrc.hubblesite.org/hu/db/images/hs-1998-14-i-web.jpg'>
</div>

Relevant CSS:

.img-container {
    position: relative;
    width: 400px;
    height: 295px;
}
.img-container input[type=checkbox] { display: none; }
.img-container input[type=checkbox] + label, .img-container img {
    position: absolute;
    min-width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
}
.img-container input[type=checkbox] + label {
    z-index: 2;
}
.img-container img { z-index: 1; }
.img-container input[type=checkbox] ~ img { animation: rev-rotate-img 1s; }
.img-container input[type=checkbox]:checked ~ img { animation: rotate-img 1s; }

@keyframes rotate-img { to { transform: rotate(360deg); } }
@keyframes rev-rotate-img { to { transform: rotate(-360deg); } }
