I want to add a bit of transitions to my website. I already have that when someone is in a input-field (so :focus) the border changes color with a transition. I would like that transition to happen from the center to left and right.
So the animation is an expanding border to both sides. Is that possible with CSS? If I have to use Jquery or Javascript it's fine.
Thanks in advance,
Ian
You can do the border transition with CSS.
Hope this helps.
CODEPEN example
HTML :
body {
padding: 50px;
}
a, a:hover {
color: #000;
text-decoration: none;
}
li {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
padding-bottom: 3px;
margin-right: 10px;
}
li:last-child {
margin-right: 0;
}
li:after {
content: '';
display: block;
margin: auto;
height: 3px;
width: 0px;
background: transparent;
transition: width .5s ease, background-color .5s ease;
}
li:hover:after {
width: 100%;
background: blue;
}
<ul>
<li><a href="#">HOME</a></li>
<li><a href="#">PAGE</a></li>
<li><a href="#">ABOUT US</a></li>
<li><a href="#">CONTACT US</a></li>
</ul>
