[Wikisource-l] page numbers and the <pages/> command

Dear all,

I recently added a new item to the list of shared scripts :
"PageNumbers.js" is a script that renders page numbers associated with
the "page" command.

Javascript rendering allows phrases that cross page breaks to be indexed
by search engines, and also to be searched in the navigator window. (see
http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:Scriptorium#searching_across_page_breaks_doesn.27t_work
) In addition, the script highlights the text that corresponds to a page
when the mouse is passed over a page link.

Example :
http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Transactions_of_the_Geological_Society,_1st_series,_vol._1/On_the_Pitch-lake_of_the_Island_of_Trinitad

To install it on your wiki, see

Thomas
