Does setattribute function in js replaces the existing attributes and its values?

For example: I have class attribute with two values. Will the class attribute be replaced when i use setattribute for class?

Pranay Sehgal no it doesn't replace them but It will remove all previous class And set a new value For example : Before <div class="clas claz" ></div> JS Clas. SetAttribute("newClass") After <div class="newClass" ></div>

HTMLElement.classList.add (YOUR_CLASS ) for info "Element.classList - Web APIs | MDN" https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/classList
