Description
GwtLoadingIcon technique doesn't work well on iPad/iOS5, won't work anyway on IE8, so I consider changing the technique used.
Current technique:
- Icon font: the 8 bits of the loading icon are from the icon font. They are placed on top of each other with hacky negative letter-spacing:-2em;
- CSS Animation: each bit is CSS-programmed with keyframes to render white half the cycle and grey the other half. each bit then starts the animation with a short delay to provide the clockwise spinning effect.
Other techniques to consider:
- Animated GIF
- SVG
- keep current + gracefully degrade to one of these techniques.
