jQuery code snippet to get class list of an element. We are using jQuery attr("class")
to get the class list as string and then splitting it on space.
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script> <div id="id1" class="class1 class2 class3">text inside div</div> <pre id="msg"></pre> <script type="text/javascript"> var classes = $("#id1").attr("class"); var classes_arr = classes.split(" "); $("#msg").text("div classes: " + JSON.stringify(classes_arr)); </script>
