this.find() not matching full word ... #39

I have two elements in my DOM, one classed "detail" and one classed "details". When I use this.find('.detail') it matches on '.details'.

Is it possible it also needs to use the size of the word in the match?

I just added a test to the Grail library for this use case of a partial class name in the selector matching a longer class name in an element. The Grail library does not make a match in this case which is correct

Can you provide a complete example that I can run showing the problem?
