All-Encompassing Trip

An eclectic blog by Guillermo Esteves

Saturday 28 November 2009

I’m done: Star Wars opening crawl, using only HTML & CSS. Caveats: It only works in Snow Leopard in Safari 4.0.4 and the WebKit nightly. Nothing else supports the CSS 3D transforms and animations I used, but I just wanted to see if it could be done.

(Here’s a video of it on YouTube, in case I run out of bandwidth for the day and it stops working.)
