I have been unable to make this script work with firefox 3.0.10 on Mac OS 10.5.6. Has Google changed their code again? I am desperate to have this feature!

Thanks if you can help

I loved your script, but had a problem. Sometimes my browser (Mozilla 3) shows the proper numbering sometimes not..

Hi, great script!

However, on 20 November 2008, Google introduced SearchWiki, which allows users to customize their search results. This broke the Numbered Google Results script.

There's a really simple fix for it. I've posted instructions on how to do it on my blog for any that are interested:

I hope you can build this into the script in future so there's no need for the hack. Cheers!

Innovative script, but this here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/743 does that and more.

I didn't even notice google didn't number it because I had the addon o__O

Thanks for the update! It was quite annoying having to revert to count on my fingers...;)

It looks like Google made a change and the script no longer works as of today. I used it all day yesterday. I confirmed it with others in our office.

Love this script! I hope you can update it so we can continue to use it!

Dan: Better to change it to "*" - listings with images (like when they add YouTube videos to results) use a div with the li nested, but the class the script looks for is on the div in that case, unlike the rest where it's on the li.

I edited the script and changed 'div' to 'li' and its working now
