This adds to the class name; it doesn't set it as requested.
If you are using jQuery, use the native addClass() method, which is easier to read and purpose built for this exact question
$('#myId').addClass('foo');

No, as I said above, this adds a class. It doesn't set the class name.

What do you mean? The above jQuery snippet is a setter not a getter, i.e. it will add the class the the elements selected.
