Removing multiple classes (jQuery)

Question

Is there any better way to rewrite this:

$('element').removeClass('class1').removeClass('class2'); 

I cannot use removeClass(); as it would remove ALL classes, which I don't want.

Answer 1

$("element").removeClass("class1 class2"); 

From removeClass(), the class parameter:

One or more CSS classes to remove from the elements, these are separated by spaces.

Answer 2

$('element').removeClass('class1 class2');

Here are the docs.
