CSS unknown property "transform"

Question

I am having some problems with my stylesheet. I am trying to do some funny hover effects, but somehow I can't use transform. Can anyone help me? The error occurs down below the comment "view one".

HTML:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="stylesheets/style.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
    <head>
        <title>thomasteilmann.dk</title>    
    </head>

    <body>
        <div class="header">
            <h1><img src="teilmann.jpg" alt="Sick Logo" /></a></h1>
            Copyright Thomas Teilmann
        </div>
        <div id="content">
            <div class="view view-first">
            <img src="images/cosmic_art_icon.jpg"/>
            <div class="mask">
                <h2>Cosmic Art</h2>
                <p>A galleri of cosmic art made in Photoshop</p>
                <a href="#" class="info">View</a>

Can you clarify what exactly the problem is and where you are getting this message? — Pekka

Also, that <link> should probably be in the <head> element. — Jared Farrish

transform isn't a standard yet, so no browser supports it at present.

However, some browsers support vendor extensions based on the draft:

-ms-transform in Internet Explorer 9
-moz-transform in Mozilla browsers (most notably Firefox)
-webkit-transform in Webkit browsers (Chrome, Safari, etc.)
-o-transform in Opera
Possibly others, I don't know.

A useful site for CSS3 styles is css3please.com. It demos effects and gives css rules for common browsers (and specifies which rules apply for which browsers).

just use this css inside your css code.Remember transform does not work in all browsers.

.view-first:hover {
    transform: rotate(30deg);
 -ms-transform: rotate(30deg); /* IE 9 */
 -webkit-transform: rotate(30deg); /* Safari and Chrome */
 -o-transform: rotate(30deg); /* Opera */
 -moz-transform: rotate(30deg); /* Firefox */
}

You'll probably need to use vendor specific styles for the transitions, for example:

#id_of_element {
-webkit-transition: all 0.2s linear;
-moz-transition: all 0.2s linear;
-o-transition: all 0.2s linear;
-ms-transition: all 0.2s linear;
transition: all 0.2s linear;

}
