I have a class with the following type of css animaton

.cssanimation {
    -webkit-transition: 0.2s all ease-in-out
    -o-transition: 0.2s all ease-in-out
    -moz-transition: 0.2s all ease-in-out
    transition: 0.2s all ease-in-out
    .. some other changes in position
}

I have the div

<div id="thediv"> ... </div>

$('#thediv').addClass('cssanimation') //animates the object

I do use this animation at some point but sometimes I'd like to add it without invoking the animation

Does Jquery have a way in which I can add classes without invoking their css animations?
