webkit transform blocking link

Question

I\'ve been working with transforms and transitions to create animated UI components without Javascript and really enjoying the results, but I\'ve come across a disturbing is

Answer 1

After combing through the webkit Bugzilla, I found someone who had the same issue and found a workaround.

.face.back {
    background-color: #125672;
    -moz-transform: rotateY(180deg);
    -webkit-transform: rotateY(180deg);
}

Becomes:

.face.back {
    background-color: #125672;
    -moz-transform: rotateY(180deg);
    -webkit-transform: rotateY(180deg) translateZ(1px);
}

The addition of the translateZ to the transform makes the left side of the element clickable.

Answer 2

I used this code below

<style>    
.outer div {
        float: left;
        -webkit-perspective: 200px;
        -webkit-transform-style: preserve-3d;
    }
.outer a {
        -webkit-transition: all 1.0s ease-in-out;
        background:#0F6;
        width:100px;
        height:100px;
        display:block;
        -webkit-transform: rotateY(45deg);
    }
.outer div:hover a {
        -webkit-transform: none;
    }
</style>

<div class="outer">
    <div>
        <a href="http://www.google.com/"></a>
    </div>
</div>

This solution works for me in chrome. http://jsfiddle.net/jaxweb/7qtLD/7/
