    Hi,

    I am working on a site and there I change from one -webkit-gradient to another.
    Now I am trying to animate this change smoothly with -webkit-transition, but it doesn’t work.

    Is there a way to make such a transition from gradient to gradient?
    (or any jQuery plugin for it?)

    Best wishes,
    Steve

    try using webkit-keyframes animation instead of transition. Remember keyframes only work in webkit browsers where as transitions and gradients have good cross-browser support, so you’d definately need some js fallback.

    I think what I might do is make both gradients actually one gradient. Think of the first one as from 0% o 50%, and the second one from 50% to 100%. Then make the background-size of the element actually twice the size of the element in one direction. Then on whatever event you want to trigger the change, shift the background-position (which you can definitely animate or transition).
