[Dojo-interest] Change CSS class Attributes Dynamically

[Milind]

Yes elfwyn,

I think your first reply was feasbile and better approch, We can take the
inputs from them create template for secondary classes and initialize the
attribute. When the content is displayed we apply those classes as secondary
classes to the main class.

I will try this how it works for given situation.

Milind N
