I have Rails site with a lot of css animation effects and javascript.The CSS transitions works very well locally but on heroku it doesn't work.

Here's my heroku logs:

And I have the javascripts and Css in the assets/javascripts and stylesheets folder.

All the assets are being compiled on runtime:

enter image description here

And also they are loaded on heroku ( I can see in the head section using firebug). Here is the site and here is the code and this is what it should be

Why is it so happening that it works fine locally but not on heroku?

On heroku (production) all your javascript files are concatenated into application.js, but locally in development they remain their own files. The issue you're experiencing is one of load order. To fix this do 2 things.

# 1 Delete the jquery * .js file in your assets/javascripts directory - you're already using jquery-rails so this is a duplicate # 2 Rename modernizer to get it load before the box layout javascript. (Its pulling alphabetically so it needs to appear before the letter 'b')

I use the prefix al-<number>-original-filename because in my head alphaload makes perfect sense, but you should use whatever keeps it straight for you. So for me that files would become

al-01-modernizr.custom.js

Looking into the codrops article the modernize.js needed to be loaded before boxlayout.js. So I explicitly include modernize.js on top of the page.And it worked now. And also renamed the modernizr.js to abc.js
