Block position in the area

How to check Block position in the area (the first block 1, the following block 2

Below code shows that "%4$s" print block numbers. Like row1,row2,row3

$a = new Area('Main');
$a->setBlockWrapperStart('<div class="row%4$s">', true);
$a->setBlockWrapperEnd('</div>');
$a->display($c);

This function is not working in 5.7, so how can print block numbers in blockwrapper?

Hi,

You can use javascript for that....
<script type="text/javascript">
$(window).load(function() {
    $(".row").each(function(i) {
        $(this).attr('id', "row" + (i + 1));
    });
});
</script>

Is it possible to use PHP for this?

What I'm trying to do is display the Block Position Number in the block. I've tried modifying your code using the code below:

<script type="text/javascript">
$(window).load(function() {
    $("#mag_pg").each(function(i) {
        $('.pg_num').append('<p>Page ' + (i + 1) + '</p>');
    });
});
</script>


It displays the text but each block displays the Block Position Number for all blocks. For instance, if I have 3 blocks, every block in that area would have <p>Page 1</p><p>Page 2</p><p>Page 3</p> at the bottom.
