I've been wondering about this for a while. Why does =$0
appears next to elements in the web inspector in Safari? I am using Safari 9.0.1
Here is a picture of what I'm talking about
(larger):
Or if you prefer the version to read:
<div style="height: 100px; width: 2px; background-color: rgb(255,196,122); transform: rotate(-60deg); bottom: 10px; right: 80x;"> = $0

More than likely, you've used the Inspection Tool and have an element highlighted.
