IE 9 and 10 background-position

I'm animating a squared sprite (n lines x m columns) with animation keyframes and background-image property. It works fine on Chrome, FF and Safari but it's totally broken on IE 9 and 10.

Here a bit of CSS (with SASS):

include keyframes(animation) {
    @for $i from 0 through 45 {
        $line : floor($i/9);
        $col : $i%9;
        $s : 20.03+($i * 14)/45 + "%";
        @if $i != 45 { #{$s}{background-position: ($col * -163px) ($line * -107px);};}
    }
}

How can I fix this on IE ?

Solution

  • It's totally broken in IE9, because it does not support CSS3 animations:

    It's broken in IE10 for two reasons:

    1. Because you're not supposed to use the -ms- prefix for animation properties in IE10 and above:
    2. Because IE10 has a bug where it doesn't use 0 values for background-position correctly in animations:

    To fix part 2, you can use a value close to 0 like 0.1.

    Thus use this CSS instead:

    #ball {
  background-image: url('http://i.imgur.com/pKnpIzd.png');
  width: 133px;
  height: 170px;
  position: absolute;
  top: 150px;
  left: 280px;
  z-index: 2;
  -webkit-animation: ball 10s infinite ; 
  -webkit-animation-timing-function: step-start; 
  animation: ball 10s infinite ; 
  animation-timing-function: step-start; 
}
