The following works if the row that i want to display has one class. But if it has two classes this don't work.

for example this works

<tr class="testcase-failed-message">
<th>
testcase-failed-message
</th>
<th>
testcase-failed-message
</th>
</tr>

And this don't since it has two classes. How can i have two classes on a tag and still chose wich one i want to use when i want to show them or not??

<tr class="testcase-failed-message failed-skipped">
<th>
testcase-failed-message
</th>
<th>
testcase-failed-message
</th>
</tr>

function show(){
doShow('testcase-failed-message');
}
 
 
 
 
function doShow(textstring) {
 
var allPageTags=document.getElementsByTagName("*");
 
for (i=0; i<allPageTags.length; i++) {
 
if (allPageTags[i].className==textstring || allPageTags[i].className==textstring2) {
 
allPageTags[i].style.display='none';
}
 
 
}
}

Honestly this is a easy

Honestly this is a easy requirement and simplicty to do if only you would use jQuery as advised in another thread, I won't touch old school JavaScript at all nowadays. jQuery is very quick to pick up as well so won't cause you too much lost time.
