Good point about stanza counting. Numbering first/last lines of stanzas is turning out to be more difficult to code than I thought. I'll see what I can do. For now, I've got the basic numeric functionality to work correctly, which is a good start. > - On bug 52061, comment 21, they suggested the possibility of assigning a > custom css class to poem.

OK, makes sense. By the way, MediaWiki outputs HTML5 now, so numeric anchors should not be an issue. Browsers don't seem to choke on them, although older ones like IE6 would have to be checked. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
