OK. I'm confused again.

It looks to me like it creates a new element of that
classname.  Oh,
off-topic a little bit, if you guys are interested, a friend
of mine made
some tweaks to prototype, check out www.beauscott.com for
info.

Subject: [Rails-spinoffs] OK. I'm confused again.


Prototype.js can be humbling.  Just when I think I've got a
handle on how to
read inside-out, I find something I've never seen before
and can't get my
head around.

I am chasing down a bug in my code which uses
Element.classNames, so I
wandered off in prototype.js to see how classNames worked.

Contest: Explain clearly, with the fewest possible words,
how this function
works:


Element.Methods = {

// other methods appear here

  classNames: function(element) {
    return new Element.ClassNames(element);
  },
