7,371 PointsMoving images: CSS3 animations or Javascript
So I want to be able to move some images on a website I am coding and I was wondering if it is possible to do with CSS3 Animations or will I need to learn some javascript to make it happen.
Essentially what I want is when I click on a link for all the images on that page to move to either the right or left side. If anyone has any ideas how would be best to achieve something like that I would really appreciate it. (also if I'm not explaining this clearly please let me know)
First forum post but super excited about this community and already have learned a ton! Thanks tree house team for making quality videos. Codeschool was not the greatest...

Sure i believe you can figure this out with CSS3 animations using the @keyframes but unfortunately you can potentially run into cross browser compatibility issues (IE 9 or earlier doesn't support CSS3 Animations). With your concept in mind you basically want to trigger an event based off .click event handler. I'd suggest adding Jquery.com to your list of favorite sites because the API documentation is extensive, in depth, and they provide great examples. For your case in particular I would read through .click event handler section and .animate section. This will definitely get you moving in the right direction.
