🔥 Remember Internet Explorer’s Page Transitions? THEY’RE BACK BABY! 👾 Demo: ie-page-transitions.netlify.app ⌨ Repo: github.com/bramus/ie-pa... To configure these, use the meta tags from the olden days + load up the library. Works in IE 5.5–7.0, Chrome 126+, and Safari 18.2 (buggy).

Oh the nostalgia vibes are hard 😊 Excellent work! I had an IE-only slide deck thing that used these (and 'behaviours', which were awful, and was written using VBScript) in 2003ish.

The good ole days where we could write VBScript in IE and have it open up the CD-ROM tray on page load 🥲

Yeah, I inherited a system that needed IE7 because they'd used custom VB controls and they didn't want to rewrite it. It was still there when I left in 2016ish. Absolute cyber security existential horror, but it interfaced with their physical punch clocks (over COM+).
