I have a lot of animations to fulfill on my website, right now I'm doing pure CSS for these animations. Is it better to use CSS or is it better to use Jquery?
Hello there,<p>I would have to agree with symmet, you need both. This way if a user doesn't have a recent version of Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari or Opera you can have jQuery to fall back on.<p>-You can use browser detection to conditionally enable jQuery scripts on page load. You can use Javascript/jQuery or a server-side script to detect exactly which browser is loading the page.<p>-You can also check out <a href="http://www.modernizr.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.modernizr.com/</a>. It adds classes to the html element which allow you to target specific browser functionality in your stylesheet.<p>Let me know if you need any help with that,<p>Good luck!<p>Karl
My approach is to do everything in CSS animations for browsers that support it, and then fall back to jQuery animations for those that don't.<p>CSS animations can take advantage of hardware graphics acceleration and they render very nicely on mobile browsers.<p>So, my answer is: both.
