I definitely remember that there was a thread about this a while back, 
including the concern that getElementsByClassName("foo bar") might 
erroneously lead people to believe that the class names had to be 
present in that order.

I suggest that participants in this thread reacquaint themselves with 
the discussion in the previous one before having it again.
