Think about it: Even the HTML spec speaks of "the element may be said to belong to these classes". Thus it makes totally sense using is() for that. The element in question doesn't have classes, it belongs to certain ones, i.e. it *is* of these classes. -- Klaus _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
