An explicit "by id" style setting will always override a class-level
style setting unless you use !important.
Any way that you could have the some_div as a class instead of an ID ?
That way the most recent applied class will override the initial setting.

Hello, I have tried this code:
$('#some_div').addClass('new_class');
And it works really well, it adds the class to the element. The
problem is that if this element had previously had any style applied
to it like:
#some_div {
color: #F00;
}
to change the color with the new class I'd have to use !important so
it can be applied like this:
.new_class {
color: #FFF !important;
}
does anyone knows why this happen? it works great and everything but I
rather not use the important statement if possible.
thanks.
