jQuery: Wildcard class selector in removeClass

Question

This code snippet works to remove an existing class, before adding a new one, when I specify it directly (ie, \'ratingBlock\', \'ratingBlock1\', \'ratingBlock2\', etc.). But

Answer 1

$.removeClass() doesn't take a selector as a parameter, only a class name (or class names).

See: Removing multiple classes (jQuery)

So you basiacally need to call:

$.removeClass('ratingBlock1 ratingBlock2 ratingBlock3 ratingBlock4 ratingBlock5');
