Question

I am working on a JavaFX application which contains few html,css,JS files which are rendered by the internal webkit browser. Now, the problem is the CSS animations which we have

Try using Java 8u112, based in your code I created a working sample (Tested using Java JDK 8u112 64bit):

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.web.WebEngine;
import javafx.scene.web.WebView;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class Example extends Application
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        launch(args);
    }

    class MyBrowser extends Parent
    {
        private WebEngine   webEngine;
        private WebView webView;

        public MyBrowser()
        {
            webView = new WebView();
            webEngine = webView.getEngine();

            // Ugly (but easy to share) HTML content 
            String pageContents = 
                    ""
                        + ""
                            + ""
                        + ""
                        + ""
                            + "
"
                        + ""
                    + "";

            webEngine.loadContent(pageContents);
            webView.setContextMenuEnabled(false);
            getChildren().add(webView);
        }
    }

    private Scene   scene;
    MyBrowser       myBrowser;

    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception
    {
        primaryStage.setTitle("Frontend");
        myBrowser = new MyBrowser();
        scene = new Scene(myBrowser);
        primaryStage.setScene(scene);
        primaryStage.show();
    }
}

I suspect this is because they are now using a newer webkit JDK-8156698 but it might have been a bug before (you can take a look at the 8u112 bug fixes list.
