Description

This method allows you to remove a classname from a number of elements, while preserving any other classnames they may have.

An element on a page may have a "class" attribute containing any number of classnames, separated by whitespace. You could clear this attribute by calling .removeAttribute(), but this overwrites the entire attribute, which would remove all classnames from your elements. .removeClass() allows you to remove only a single classname.

It's safe to call this on elements which do not already have the given classname.
