jquery html5 webkit-animation callback

Question

Is there any callback on webkit-animation complete? see example

@-webkit-keyframes "blink" {
    0% { opacity: 1; }
    100% { opacity: 0; }
}
.animate {
    background: #000;
    height: 100px;
    width: 100px;
    opacity: 0;
    -webkit-animation-direction: normal;
    -webkit-animation-duration: 2s;
    -webkit-animation-iteration-count: 1;
    -webkit-animation-name: blink;
    -webkit-animation-timing-function: ease;
}​

$("div").bind("webkitTransitionEnd", function() {
  alert(1);
}).addClass("animate");​

But this callback doesn't work

Answer 1

This will do the trick:

element.addEventListener('webkitAnimationEnd', function(event) { });

in firefox the event is called 'animationend', but some webkit browsers will listen to both of these. Instead what you can do if you use jquery is to use

$element.on('webkitAnimationEnd animationend' , function(event){ });

Update:

I recently had a small mishap using .one('webkitAnimationEnd animationend') since both events are being listened to in chrome, but only one fired at a time, the same function will fire twice on two seperate animation end events.

Instead a small trick could be using a function similar to this:

getTransitionEndEvent : function(){
    switch(this._currentBrowser){
        case enums.Browser.SAFARI:
        case enums.Browser.CHROME:
            return "webkitTransitionEnd";
        case enums.Browser.FIREFOX:
            return "transitionend";
        default:
            console.log("unknown browser agent for transition end event");
            return "";
    }
}

and add more vendor specific prefixes as needed.

In order to identify the browser I can really recommend this:
