As I said in the mail we'll need to add them (could be done in a separate patch). There is also some objective-c bindings that I need to look at. > > On Fri, Jan 11, 2013 at 11:30 AM, Alexis Menard <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> Hi all, >> >> As you know I'm working on unprefixing CSS transitions and I need a >> few advice from the DOM experts. >> >> Problem : CSS Transitions when they finish to animate send a DOM event >> "transitionend" as specified there [1] to give the developer a notice >> that the transition finished.
