Browser Support for 3D Transforms
The numbers in the table specify the first browser version that fully supports the property. Numbers followed by -webkit-, -moz-, or -o- specify the first version that worked with a prefix.
CSS3 3D Transforms
In this chapter you will learn about the following 3D transformation methods:
- rotateX()
- rotateY()
- rotateZ()
The rotateX() Method
The rotateX() method rotates an element around its X-axis at a given degree:
Example
div {
-webkit-transform: rotateX(150deg); /* Safari */
transform: rotateX(150deg);
}

The rotateY() Method
The rotateY() method rotates an element around its Y-axis at a given degree:
Example
div {
-webkit-transform: rotateY(130deg); /* Safari */
transform: rotateY(130deg);
}

The rotateZ() Method
The rotateZ() method rotates an element around its Z-axis at a given degree:
Example
div {
-webkit-transform: rotateZ(90deg); /* Safari */
transform: rotateZ(90deg);
}
