BibleCS, per my preference, only shows hover-over symbols for the note or cross reference, and does not include the 'n' label. BibleCS uses different filters though, so not affected.
SWORDWeb will be affected. My thought on this is similar to strongs. Don't show the numbers. They are left overs from the era of print-only. The exception use case is possibly our NET module which has a commentary accompaniment module which might refer to footnotes by label. If I remember correctly. So, I would like the choice to not have the label for the frontends I maintain, but if users really want to see the label, I could be swayed on this point, wearing my frontend developer hat. But I don't want to take away the choice from other potential frontend developers. I understand Karl's desire to not want Xiphos and all other frontend developers to do the work of adding the label, if everyone mostly wants the label. Can we have both? Karl, I haven't looked at your patch yet, but is there a way to wrap the label in a <span class="[fn,cx]-label"> then I can simply set display:none for these in swordweb?
