sorry missed the dot in front, so the correct class selector is: $(“.blah\.blah\.blah”).

The escape character is \ so the selector would be $(“blah\.blah\.blah”). This selector also selects the elements even though the element would have multiple classes.

The *= will defeat the purpose pointed out by Rodrigo.

$(“[class*=class2]“) will allow it to match . But this is unnecessary since $(“.class2″) will do the same.

The whole point of doing $(“class=class2″) is to ensure that DOES NOT match, whereas does.

I have an html tag with an attribute class “blah.blah.blah baz.baz.baz”
how do i state so that my selection would contain all those with class “blah.blah.blah” including the mentioned tag with attribute “blah.blah.blah baz.baz.baz” ?

I have a strange issue with the class selector. Since I updated with 1.4.4, all my class selectors suchas $(“.class”) do not work. I have to add a specific parent ID object to make them work: $(“#parentIDObject .class”)
Did I miss something ? a default setting in jQuery ?
