toggle-transition v2.0.0

toggleTransition.js

Tiny vanilla JavaScript plugin that enables you to show/hide/toggle DOM Element taking advantage of CSS transitions and without worrying about details.

Problem

CSS3 transition doesn't work with display property.

CSS3 transitions don't apply to the display property, i.e., you can't do any sort of transition from display: none to display: block (or any combination).

Transitions on the CSS display property on StackOverflow.

How it solves the problem

The plugin shows/hides an element with CSS3 transition effects and manages its display property behind the scenes.

In case of hidding the element, toggleTransition.js sets element's display property to none right after transition ends, making use of onTransitionEnd event.

If case of showing the element, it sets the display back to initial state. Then CSS transition runs and the element appears smoothly.
