If you want to rely on JavaScript you could also put the line numbers in another dropdown box and when you scroll one box they both scroll at the same rate. If you add a new line you could automatically add another line to the line-number box. I'm sure you could do some tweaking to hide the scrollbar of the line number box by laying the code box on the next z-index layer above the line numbers.
