It's done in CSS3 + JS, so it should be pretty easy.

#card.flipped { -webkit-transform: rotateY( 180deg ); -moz-transform: rotateY( 180deg ); -o-transform: rotateY( 180deg ); transform: rotateY( 180deg ); }

Sure but implementing the card back image is more difficult, which is what I think the parent post was getting at, rather than the flipping itself. The rest of the page is implemented without any images, which is neat; you'd have to work some SVG magic or something to create e.g. a Bicycle-esque card back without loading an image.

http://lea.verou.me/css3patterns/ could provide a pretty good source for patterned card backs.

Displaying an image on a web page shouldn't be that difficult.

I like the svg suggestion.

It's not about difficulty, it's just fun to try and do it with only web elements, and bonus points for strictly CSS

I don't see any problem using couple of SVG image files for example.. The problem is that I'm not such a great drawer myself. In the first version I just used big J, Q, K like this: http://pakastin.fi/cards_2006

He means drawing the complex decorative design on the back of most cards.
