Hi everyone I have been racking my brains and I cant remember how to append a class from an action to a div thats already has classes added to it from the style palette. I was looking for for something like

```
      myTag.fwAddJToTag("class","myclass");

```

but obviously this would give me

```
   <div id="item1" class="style1;myclass"></div>

```

so I was racking my brains to remember if there was a proper way to append to a class

Cheers in advance

max
