Strips Transition (filter)
The Strips Transition reveals new content by moving successive strips into
place,. Defined via IE's CSS filter
property and applied through JavaScript, here is its basic
syntax:
Syntax:
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Strips(attribute1=value1, attribute2=value2, etc);
Syntax (post IE8):
-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Strips(attribute1=value1, attribute2=value2, etc)";
Note: See "Difference in syntax between pre IE8 and IE8+ browsers" for more info on the changes to the filter syntax in IE8+.
Example:
<style type="text/css">
#somediv{
width: 90%;
-ms-filter:
"progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Strips(duration=3)";
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Strips(duration=3);
}
</style>
<div id="somediv">Some
DIV</div>
Syntax Via Scripting
//To define a new Strips transition on
an element
object.style.filter ="progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Strips(attribute=value1,
attribute2=value2)"
//To get/set a property within the Strips transition:
object.filters.item("DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Strips").Property1=value1;
