I'm creating a tab interface whereby the active tab has a rotate transformation which allows a preview of the next tab to be visible. Clicking on a button in the preview area will open the next tab.
This is working fine in all browsers apart from IE11. See snippet below.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('button').click(function() {
alert('Button was clicked');
});
})* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0
}
.container {
width: 400px;
height: 200px;
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;
}
.container .tab {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 185%;
height: 140%;
transform: translateX(-50%) rotate(-25deg);
transform-origin: 50% 0;
overflow: hidden;
}
.container .tab .content {
transform: rotate(25deg);
transform-origin: 0 0;
margin-left: 50%;
position: relative;
height: 75%;
width: 55%;
}
.container .tab-1 {
z-index: 2;
}
.container .tab-1 .content {
background-color: red;
}
.container .tab-2 {
z-index: 1;
height: 200%;
}
.container .tab-2 .content {
background-color: green;
}
.container .tab-2 button {
position: absolute;
bottom: 37%;
right: 20px;
}<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="container">
<div class="tab tab-1">
<div class="content"></div>
</div>
<div class="tab tab-2">
<div class="content">
<button type="button">
Click me
</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>I think the problem is that although IE visibly performs the rotation, the original bounding area itself is not rotated, thus the click doesn't get applied on the background element.
Anybody got any ideas how I can fix this? jsfiddle here: https://jsfiddle.net/bmq2e2ae/1/
