CSS transitions are indeed hardware-accelerated on iOS, so you should stick to them whenever possible.

Unfortunately the transitions/keyframe animations indeed may only work on bitmaps, which probably is because UIWebView internally uses UIImageView to render them.

In addition, -webkit-animaton definitions need to be present when the document loads - they cannot be added at runtime.

You could try to put the CSS into the SVG file (instead onto the HTML document that includes the SVG) and see if that works.

Good luck,


Reiner
