In a reaction to link to perl documentation

This works in the JS code works inside the console in FF and Chrome and will show hidden html-anchors ready to be cut&paste with PM markup

+");
    var as =document.getElementsByTagName("a");
    for (i in as) { 
        var l = as[i]; 
        if (l.id && l.classList.length == 0 ){
            var dlink   = path + "#" + l.id;
            l.innerHTML = "<b>" + path + "#[doc://"+dlink+"]</b><br>";
+ 
            l.href      = "#" + l.id 
        } 
    }
})()

NB: This is far from being bug-free perldoc.perl.org and PM markup have their own idiosyncrasies! But it's a start.

Feel free to post better versions!!!
