Jquery, addclass to created element

Question

I am using jQuery to dynamically build the column header for fullcalendar.js. This code is working but I want to be able to add a class name to each of the elements.

function buildDateColumnHeader(theDate) {
    var container = document.createElement('div');
    var DDD = document.createElement('span');
    var ddMMM = document.createElement('span');
    DD.textContent = theDate.format('DD').toUpperCase();
    ddd.textContent = theDate.format('ddd');
    container.appendChild(DD);
    container.appendChild(ddd);

    return container;
}

I have tried the following and they produce errors:

DDD.classname = "ds-header-day";

var DDD = document.createElement('span').addClass('ds-header-day');

This is probably easy for a jquery savvy person.

DDD.addClass('ds-header-day'); ?

There is a syntax error in your statement, hope that is not causing problems

It should be DDD.className='yourclass'
