change CSS definition by javascript

Hi,

i have a basic question on CSS.
Is it possible to change the CSS class definition dynamically by using
Javascript.

example:
ich have a css class like this one:

..test {
color: red;
}

and some HTML tags like

<span class="test">bla bla</span>
...
<span class="test">bla bla</span>
...
<span class="test">bla bla</span>

and now ic would have a link/button to click and then change the color
attribute in class test to blue with Javascript (means without reloading
page and changing it on the server)

is that possible?

thanks.

I am not the OP, but thanks for this link. It should come in two
versions, though. One with a big "YES" and one with a big "NO". Then
you could give one or the other link as the answer.

All in all, if I could be any animal, I would want to be
a duck or a goose. They can fly, walk, and swim. Plus,
there there is a certain satisfaction knowing that at the
end of your life you will taste good with an orange sauce
or, in the case of a goose, a chestnut stuffing.

I doubt the OP will be thanking anyone...

Isn't this more than a little evil? Implicit questions are a major
feature of English (at least in Britain - maybe everyone else is more
direct?) and we'd never get anywhere if people insisted on taking
everything literally...

See the discussion on "Alternate style sheets" 4/24/05.
You may be interested in my link of an example/demo.
I used onmouseover but onclick may be used if desired.

A solution is here:

Great if you use Dreamweaver, very useable, but a little more work if
you dont.
