Step 3 – Add JavaScript
Copy and paste below code in your HTML editor between <script></script> tag.
<script>
/* REFERENCE: http://24ways.org/2010/intro-to-css-3d-transforms/ by David DeSandro */
var init = function() {
var box = document.querySelector('.box'),
showPanelButtons = document.querySelectorAll('ul#options li button'),
panelClassName = 'show-front',
onButtonClick = function(event) {
console.log(box)
$(box).removeClass(panelClassName);
panelClassName = event.target.className;
$(box).addClass(panelClassName);
};
for (var i = 0, len = showPanelButtons.length; i < len; i++) {
showPanelButtons[i].addEventListener('click', onButtonClick, false);
}
};
window.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', init, false);
//Only to Demo
$('button').click(function() {
$('ul#options li button').removeClass('current');
$(this).addClass('current');
});
