Creating 3D animation using "iframe" in HTML5

Hi, everyone. You will be happy to know that we can create a 3D animation in HTML5. It is a very interesting and simple feature to work with. In this article you will learn how to create an <iframe></iframe> object and add 3D animation to it. Here we will make use of JavaScript and some different styles along with HTML code.

Just go through the steps to learn how to create this application.

Step 1: Open an HTML editor or Visual Studio. This is where we will create an HTML5 application. If you are using Visual Studio:

Step 2: Now set up the frame. Delete the code that is automatically generated in the HTML page we created. Write the following code below to begin:

This will be explained later in the article.

Step 4 : See the style code below to add a style to the frame:

This is where the tag <div id="transformation"> applies changes to the frame. In this tag, the style is called and applied to the frame or whatever is quoted inside the <div id="transformation">tag. Here, only <iframe is quoted inside this tag so the style is applied to the frame.

If you look at the lines of code defined for the style, they contain the line-webkit-perspective: 800; and perspective: 800; these lines are important to work with in 3D because these lines define the depth of 3D scene from values 1-1000

Step 5: Now add a mouse hovering effect to the frame. Write the following code:
