I think you can use

$("#target").addClass("newclass");

for adding the class to the elemet #target and

$("#target").removeClass("newclass");

to remove it.

If you dont know wether the class is already there or not you can use

$("#target").toggleClass("newclass");

if its there, it will be removed, and if its not there it will be added.
