Am I applying onClick correctly?

This is my first time trying to apply a onClick to a transformation in css. I'm not sure why it's not working though. What am I doing wrong?

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <style type="text/css">
      .flipit { 
          width: 500px; 
          height: 200px;
          margin: 10px; 
          float: left;
      }
      .flipit > .front { 
          onClick="clickity()";
          position: absolute;
          transform: perspective( 800px ) rotateY( 0deg );
          background: aqua; width: 240px; height: 200px; border-radius: 7px; 
          backface-visibility: hidden;
          transition: transform 1s linear 0s;
      }
       .flipit > .back { 
          onClick="clickity()";
          position: absolute;
          transform: perspective( 800px ) rotateY( 180deg );
          background: red; width: 240px; height: 200px; border-radius: 7px; 
          backface-visibility: hidden;
          transition: transform 1s linear 0s;
    <script>
          function Clickity () { 
          transition: transform: perspective( 800px ) rotateY( 180deg );   
    </script>
      }
     /* .flipit:hover > .front { 
          transform: perspective( 800px ) rotateY( -180deg );
      }
      /*.flipit:hover > .back {
          transform: perspective( 800px ) rotateY( 0deg );
      }
   </style>
    </head>
<body>
    <div class="flipit">
        <div class="front">Front Face</div>
        <div class="back">Back Face</div>
    </div>
</body>
</html>

Thanks!

You are mixing JavaScript in with your CSS. onClick is a JavScript event, it is not CSS. http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/event_onclick.asp

looks like Clickity on your scripts tag should be lowercase and have no space between clickity and parentheses. Like this 

<script>
      function clickity() { 
      transition: transform: perspective( 800px ) rotateY( 180deg );   
</script>
