HTML Code:

<!DOCTYPE html><!-- Specifies the document type and version of HTML -->
<html>
<head>
<title>How to color property is animatable</title><!-- Sets the title of the HTML document -->
<style type="text/css"> /* Begins a CSS style block */
#mydiv {
border: 1px solid #ff00ff; /* Adds a magenta border with a thickness of 1 pixel around the div with the id "mydiv" */
width: 200px; /* Sets the width of the div with the id "mydiv" to 200 pixels */
color: #CC64FF; /* Sets the text color for the div with the id "mydiv" to a shade of purple */
-webkit-animation: mymove 5s infinite; /* Applies a CSS animation named "mymove" to the div with the id "mydiv" for 5 seconds, repeating infinitely; specific to WebKit browsers */
animation: mymove 5s infinite; /* Applies a CSS animation named "mymove" to the div with the id "mydiv" for 5 seconds, repeating infinitely */
}
@keyframes mymove { /* Defines a CSS animation named "mymove" */
50% {color: #3334CC;} /* Specifies the color of the div with the id "mydiv" to change to a shade of blue at the halfway point of the animation */
}
</style><!-- Ends the CSS style block -->
</head>
<body>
<div id="mydiv"><!-- Starts a div with an id of "mydiv" -->
<h1>w3resource Tutorial</h1><!-- Inserts an h1 element with the text "w3resource Tutorial" -->
<p>CSS, stands for Cascading Style Sheet is a computer language to describe presentation of HTML and XML web documents.</p><!-- Inserts a paragraph element with text describing CSS -->
</div><!-- Ends the div with the id "mydiv" -->
</body>
</html>

Explanation:

  • This HTML document demonstrates how to create an animatable color property using CSS animations.
  • The CSS style block defines rules for the div with the id "mydiv".
  • The div with the id "mydiv" has a magenta border with a thickness of 1 pixel, a width of 200 pixels, and a text color of purple (#CC64FF).
  • An animation named "mymove" is applied to the div with the id "mydiv" for 5 seconds, repeating infinitely.
  • The CSS animation "mymove" is defined using keyframes, specifying that at the halfway point (50%), the color of the div with the id "mydiv" changes to a shade of blue (#3334CC).
  • The HTML body contains an h1 element with the text "w3resource Tutorial" and a paragraph element describing CSS.
  • During the animation, the text color of the div with the id "mydiv" changes from purple to blue at the halfway point, creating an animatable color effect.
