Since element.classList
is not supported in IE 9 and Safari-5, what's an alternative cross-browser solution?
No-frameworks please.
Solution must work in at least IE 9 , Safari 5 , FireFox 4, Opera 11.5, and Chrome.

Here is solution for addClass, removeClass, hasClass in pure javascript solution.
Actually it's from http://jaketrent.com/post/addremove-classes-raw-javascript/
function hasClass(ele,cls) {
return !!ele.className.match(new RegExp('(\\s|^)'+cls+'(\\s|$)'));
}
function addClass(ele,cls) {
if (!hasClass(ele,cls)) ele.className += " "+cls;
}
function removeClass(ele,cls) {
if (hasClass(ele,cls)) {
var reg = new RegExp('(\\s|^)'+cls+'(\\s|$)');
ele.className=ele.className.replace(reg,' ');
}
}
Look at these oneliners:
Remove class:
element.classList.remove('hidden');
Toggle class (adds the class if it's not already present and removes it if it is)
element.classList.toggle('hidden');
That's all. I made a test - 10000 iterations. 0.8s.
I just wrote these up:
function addClass(el, classNameToAdd){
el.className += ' ' + classNameToAdd;
}
function removeClass(el, classNameToRemove){
var elClass = ' ' + el.className + ' ';
while(elClass.indexOf(' ' + classNameToRemove + ' ') !== -1){
elClass = elClass.replace(' ' + classNameToRemove + ' ', '');
}
el.className = elClass;
}
I think they'll work in all browsers.
The simplest is element.classList
which has remove(name)
, add(name)
, toggle(name)
, and contains(name)
methods and is now supported by all major browsers .
For older browsers you change element.className
. Here are two helper:
function addClass(element, className){
element.className += ' ' + className;
}
function removeClass(element, className) {
element.className = element.className.replace(
new RegExp('( |^)' + className + '( |$)', 'g'), ' ').trim();
}
One way to play around with classes without frameworks/libraries would be using the property Element.className, which " gets and sets the value of the class attribute of the specified element. " (from the MDN documentation ).
As @matías-fidemraizer already mentioned in his answer, once you get the string of classes for your element you can use any methods associated with strings to modify it.
Here's an example:
Assuming you have a div with the ID "myDiv" and that you want to add to it the class "main__section" when the user clicks on it,
window.onload = init;
function init() {
document.getElementById("myDiv").onclick = addMyClass;
}
function addMyClass() {
var classString = this.className; // returns the string of all the classes for myDiv
var newClass = classString.concat(" main__section"); // Adds the class "main__section" to the string (notice the leading space)
this.className = newClass; // sets className to the new string
}
Read this Mozilla Developer Network article:
Since element.className property is of type string, you can use regular String object functions found in any JavaScript implementation:
If you want to add a class, first use String.indexOf
in order to check if class is present in className . If it's not present, just concatenate a blank character and the new class name to this property. If it's present, do nothing.
If you want to remove a class, just use String.replace
, replacing "[className]" with an empty string. Finally use String.trim
to remove blank characters at the start and end of element.className
.
Fixed the solution from @Paulpro
removeClass
function was broken, as it bugged out after repeated use. `
function addClass(el, newClassName){
el.className += ' ' + newClassName;
}
function removeClass(el, removeClassName){
var elClass = el.className;
while(elClass.indexOf(removeClassName) != -1) {
elClass = elClass.replace(removeClassName, '');
elClass = elClass.trim();
}
el.className = elClass;
}
The solution is to
Shim .classList
:
Either use the DOM-shim or use Eli Grey's shim below
Disclaimer: I believe the support is FF3.6+, Opera10+, FF5, Chrome, IE8+

Improved version of emil's code (with trim())
function hasClass(ele,cls) {
return !!ele.className.match(new RegExp('(\\s|^)'+cls+'(\\s|$)'));
}
function addClass(ele,cls) {
if (!hasClass(ele,cls)) ele.className = ele.className.trim() + " " + cls;
}
function removeClass(ele,cls) {
if (hasClass(ele,cls)) {
var reg = new RegExp('(\\s|^)'+cls+'(\\s|$)');
ele.className = ele.className.replace(reg,' ');
ele.className = ele.className.trim();
}
}
function addClass(element, classString) {
element.className = element
.className
.split(' ')
.filter(function (name) { return name !== classString; })
.concat(classString)
.join(' ');
}
function removeClass(element, classString) {
element.className = element
.className
.split(' ')
.filter(function (name) { return name !== classString; })
.join(' ');
}
Just in case if anyone would like to have prototype functions built for elements, this is what I use when I need to manipulate classes of different objects:
Element.prototype.addClass = function (classToAdd) {
var classes = this.className.split(' ')
if (classes.indexOf(classToAdd) === -1) classes.push(classToAdd)
this.className = classes.join(' ')
}
Element.prototype.removeClass = function (classToRemove) {
var classes = this.className.split(' ')
var idx =classes.indexOf(classToRemove)
if (idx !== -1) classes.splice(idx,1)
this.className = classes.join(' ')
}
Use them like: document.body.addClass('whatever')
or document.body.removeClass('whatever')
Instead of body you can also use any other element (div, span, you name it)
A easy to understand way:
// Add class
DOMElement.className += " one";
// Example:
// var el = document.body;
// el.className += " two"
// Remove class
function removeDOMClass(element, className) {
var oldClasses = element.className,
oldClassesArray = oldClasses.split(" "),
newClassesArray = [],
newClasses;
// Sort
var currentClassChecked,
i;
for ( i = 0; i < oldClassesArray.length; i++ ) {
// Specified class will not be added in the new array
currentClassChecked = oldClassesArray[i];
if( currentClassChecked !== className ) {
newClassesArray.push(currentClassChecked);
}
}
// Order
newClasses = newClassesArray.join(" ");
// Apply
element.className = newClasses;
return element;
}
// Example:
// var el = document.body;
// removeDOMClass(el, "two")

add css classes: cssClassesStr += cssClassName;
remove css classes: cssClassStr = cssClassStr.replace(cssClassName,"");
add attribute 'Classes': object.setAttribute("class", ""); //pure addition of this attribute
object.setAttribute("class", ""); //pure addition of this attribute
remove attribute: object.removeAttribute("class");
