animation-iteration-count

Summary

The animation-iteration-count CSS property defines the number of times an animation cycle should be played before stopping.

It is often convenient to use the shorthand property animation to set all animation properties at once.

Syntax

animation-iteration-count: infinite;
animation-iteration-count: 3;
animation-iteration-count: 2.3;

animation-iteration-count: 2, 0, infinite;

Values

infinite

The animation will repeat forever.

<number>

The number of times the animation should repeat; this is 1 by default. Negative values are invalid. You may specify non-integer values to play part of an animation cycle (for example 0.5 will play half of the animation cycle).

Formal syntax

<single-animation-iteration-count>#
where 
<single-animation-iteration-count> = infinite | <number>
