-Help With Vertically Flipping Element-

I need some help with a christmas card I am trying to build ... I have the front designed and need to use the "click to flip" to vertically flip the card ... and I will have text on the inside ... the process will need to be able to be reversed to go back to the front of the card ... any help would be appreciated!! ... http://christmascard.netau.net/

I took the attached screenshot from Firefox's developer tools, using the 3D View, just out of interest.

But I suspect what you are looking to achieve will require some quite detailed CSS3 and/or some JavaScript or jQuery. Personally, I would use jQuery and search for a plug-in to "flip element" or "flip image" (or invert).

Do you want the card to be animated, in other words do you want to see the card opening and getting bigger with perspective, or do you just want to click and show the inside of the card. Animated solution would be more complex, static solution trivial. Both are pretty simple.

the circle in this example would work fine http://css3playground.com/flip-card.php but I'm not sure how to set that up
