Why does jquery class selector select elements that have part of the class name?

I think you might have something funky where it gets thrown away. If I run this very simple example, it works as expected.
<html>
<head>
</head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.2.6.pack.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".car").hide();
});
</script>
<body>
<div id=container>
<div class="carBig">Car Big</div>
<div class="car">Car</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
You can try posting the rest of your html to see if we can figure it out.

Which version of jquery are you using?
Using this code:
<html><head><title>Testing</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/jquery/jquery-1.2.6.min.js">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".car").each(function() {
$("#carResults").append($(".car").size());
$("#carResults").append($(this).text());
});
});
</script>
</head><body>
<div class="carBig">Big Car</div>
<div class="car">Regular Car</div>
<div id="carResults"></div>
</body></html>
My output document looked like this:
Big Car
Regular Car
1Regular Car
Mine just found 1 item, the one with the class "car" ...
