IE not applying styles to dynamically created class

[binaryWeapon]

When I add a class to an element with elem.setAttribute("class","foo"), IE isn't applying the style rules I have set in my stylesheet for the foo class. Is there any way around this?

Unless you're a glutton for punishment, I'd consider just assigning class directly, to the HTMLElement.className property.

use

elem.setAttribute("className","foo")
