Stack Overflow: number the answers
Adds a visible index number at the start of each answer, making it easy to reference them in comments.
Code to copy
/* Prefix every answer with a visible index number */
(function () {
function number() {
document.querySelectorAll('#answers .answer').forEach(function (a, i) {
if (a.dataset.sofNum) return;
a.dataset.sofNum = '1';
var cell = a.querySelector('.answercell .js-post-body') || a.querySelector('.answercell');
if (!cell) return;
var tag = document.createElement('div');
tag.textContent = '#' + (i + 1);
tag.style.cssText = 'font-weight:700;font-size:13px;color:#6a737c;margin-bottom:6px;';
cell.insertBefore(tag, cell.firstChild);
});
}
number();
new MutationObserver(number).observe(document.body, { childList: true, subtree: true });
})();
