IE doesn't do well with getAttribute('class').  Access className  
directly from the element:

var str = Event.element(event).className;

'Tis not so.  getAttribute() is a DOM function, not a Prototype  
extension.

Old versions of Prototype didn't extend the element, but new versions  
do. Either way, as getAttribute isn't a DOM function, it's irrelevant  
here.
