Reusing Key Frames

You can use the same set of key frames for multiple animations.

 
<!DOCTYPE HTML> 
<html> 
    <head> 
        <title>Example</title> 
        <style> 
            p { 
                padding: 5px; 
                border: medium double black; 
                background-color: lightgray; 
            } 
            span { 
                font-size: large; 
                border: medium solid black; 
            } 
            #myID { 
                -webkit-animation-duration: 5000ms; 
                -webkit-animation-iteration-count: infinite; 
                -webkit-animation-direction: alternate;

                -webkit-animation-name: 'ColorSwap'; 
            }
