[whatwg] getElementsByClassName()

This is not how the CLASS attribute works. "foo bar" means the element has two
classes bound to it, "foo" and "bar". With your syntax,
getElementsByClassName("bar foo") would also need to match an element 
with "foo
bar" as value for the CLASS attribute.

Kind regards,
