May a Tag have Two Classes?

I recently got a warning from the WDG HTML Validator at
http://www.htmlhelp.com/ for assigning two classes as shown for
http://www.journeys.ws/books.asp :

Line 71, character 23:

<p class="menu" class="nw">

Error: duplicate specification of attribute CLASS

I Googled but can't find anything on it. Is there a way to assign two
classes so the page will validate (yes, I know there are other errors and
I'm working on them)?

TIA

Neill

Yes. Multiple classes are space separated e.g. <p class="menu nw">

Neither class will be applied by Netscape 4, but both will be applied
by IE5 (maybe IE4) and more modern browsers.

IE4 doesn't support multiple classes.

There we are then. Another benefit to using multiple classes - it
hides our CSS from IE4 as well as from NN4. Good stuff.

You don't even need multiple classes: just write
<p class="mystyle mystyle">
