3D Transforms: Infinite rotation.... how? (Can an experienced CSS expert chime in)

Ok par this video I finally got some insight into a technique I had in the back of my mind for a while. Now I can put in on the page... so exciting. Anyway par the lesson you have your images inside a div with a class... lets say "wrap" just like the lesson. You throw this in the CSS

.wrap:hover { -webkit-transform: rotateY(360deg); }

and presto it spins around once. Or twice (720deg) depending on the value you specify. How can I get it to spin infinitely? I have an Octahedron I'd like to apply this effect to ;)

Thanks

Omarwali;

It sounds like you are bordering on, or are wanting more animation than basic rotation. At any rate, take a look at this tutorial and see if that is close to what you are looking to do.

Post back if not and we can move on to a different approach if necessary.

Happy coding,
