Absolutely Karl - the is() method is wonderful, I use it quite often. But there are often more ways to achieve the same things, sometimes it's just a matter of taste. Anyway - a hasClass method would probably even save a few ms compared to is() in my opinion, because you don't need to parse stuff.

Maybe .hasClass() would be helpful, but keep in mind that .is() offers /more/ functionalities than .hasClass() would. For example ... $('.class').is('#my-id') $('p').is(':visible') $('div').is('[a]') I'm not necessarily opposed to having .hasClass(), but I really love the flexibility of .is(). --Karl _________________ Karl Swedberg www.englishrules.com www.learningjquery.com On Mar 4, 2007, at 10:07 AM, Sébastien Pierre wrote: Hi, This is not very obvious, and I guess some people won't notice that "is" offers the same functionalities as a potential "hasClass"... from a "developer friendly" point of view, I think it would be better to have addClass/toggleClass/hasClass rather than addClass/ toggleClass/is.
