I've had a look around but can't quite find what i'm looking for.
I currently have a css animation on my page which is triggered by :hover. I would like this to change to 'click' or 'touch' when the page is resized past width 700px using media queries.
Here is what i have at the moment: http://jsfiddle.net/danieljoseph/3p6Kz/
As you can see, the :hover will not work on mobile devices but i still want to ensure it works the same way just by click, not hover.
I would rather use css if possible but happy with JQuery also.
I have a feeling this is very easy to do but i am just missing something very obvious! Any help would be appreciated.
Here is the css animation:
.info-slide {position:absolute;bottom:0;float:left;width:100%;background:url(../images/blue-back.png);height:60px;cursor:pointer;overflow:hidden;text-align:center;transition: height .4s ease-in-out;-webkit-transition: height .4s ease-in-out;-moz-transition: height .4s ease-in-out;}.info-slide:hover {height:300px;}Best Answer
If you use :active selector in combination with :hover you can achieve this according to w3schools as long as the :active selector is called after the :hover selector.
.info-slide:hover, .info-slide:active{height:300px;}You'd have to test the FIDDLE in a mobile environment. I can't at the moment.
correction - I just tested in a mobile, it works fine
You can add onclick="" to hovered element. Hover will work after that.
Edit: But you really shouldn't add anything style related to your markup, just posted it as an alternative.
document.addEventListener("touchstart", function() {}, true);This snippet will enable hover effects for touchscreens
I got the same trouble, in mobile device with Microsoft's Edge browser. I can solve the problem with: aria-haspopup="true". It need to add to the div and the :hover, :active, :focus for the other mobile browsers.
Example html:
<div class="left_bar" aria-haspopup="true">CSS:
.left_bar:hover, .left_bar:focus, .left_bar:active{left: 0%;}On most devices, the other answers work. For me, to ensure it worked on every device (in react) I had to wrap it in an anchor tag <a> and add the following::hover, :focus, :active (in that order), as well as role="button" and tabIndex="0".

This will fix your hover-stick / active button problems.
body, html {width: 600px;}p {font-size: 20px;}button {border: none;width: 200px;height: 60px;border-radius: 30px;background: #00aeff;font-size: 20px;}button:active {background: black;color: white;}.delayed {transition: all 0.2s;transition-delay: 300ms;}.delayed:active {transition: none;}<h1>Sticky styles for better touch screen buttons!</h1><button>Normal button</button><button class="delayed"><a href="https://www.google.com"/>Delayed style</a></button><p>The CSS :active psuedo style is displayed between the time when a user touches down (when finger contacts screen) on a element to the time when the touch up (when finger leaves the screen) occures. With a typical touch-screen tap interaction, the time of which the :active psuedo style is displayed can be very small resulting in the :active state not showing or being missed by the user entirely. This can cause issues with users not undertanding if their button presses have actually reigstered or not.</p><p>Having the the :active styling stick around for a few hundred more milliseconds after touch up would would improve user understanding when they have interacted with a button.</p>I am a CSS noob but I have noticed that hover will work for touch screens so long as it's a "hoverable" element: image, link, button. You can do it all with CSS using the following trick.
Change your div background to an actual image tag within the div or create a dummy link around the entire div, it will then register as a hover when you touch the image.
Doing this will mean that you need the rest of your page to also be "hoverable" so when you touch outside of the image it recognizes that info-slide:hover has ended. My trick is to make all of my other content dummy links.
It's not very elegant but it works.
Well I agree with above answers but still there can be an another way to do this and it is by using media queries.
Suppose this is what you want to do :
body.nontouch nav a:hover {background: yellow;}then you can do this by media query as :
@media(hover: hover) and (pointer: fine) {nav a:hover {background: yellow;}}And for more details you can visit this page.
I think this simple method can achieve this goal.With CSS you can turn off pointer event to 'none' then use jQuery to switch classes.
.item{pointer-events:none;}.item.clicked{pointer-events:inherit;}.item:hover,.item:active{/* Your Style On Hover Converted to Tap*/background:#000;}Use jQuery to switch classed:
jQuery('.item').click(function(e){e.preventDefault();$(this).addClass('clicked')l});I was looking for a pure-CSS solution and :active wasn't exactly what I was looking for because an element will only be active during the click / touch, meaning the hover/active state will either be visible very briefly or, if you keep touching, your finger might cover up the element. Some people might prefer this behavior but in my case I rather wanted a "toggle" and keep the "hover" state once touched, and allow the user to disable the state again by touching the screen somewhere else.
So I went with a :focus state and included tabindex="0" to make the element focus-able across browsers.
.wrapper {overflow: hidden;}.tag {display: flex;width: fit-content;transform: translateX(-100%);transition: all 1s ease-out;.text {background: gray;}.icon {position: absolute;background: red;}&:hover, &:focus {transform: translateX(0);}}<div class="wrapper"> <div class="tag" tabindex="0"><div class="text">Label</div><div class="icon-wrapper"><div class="icon">Icon</div></div></div></div>Obviously, one could further tweak this to enable :focus only in mobile browsers / touch-enabled devices.
