On Craigslist, if you go to your ad listings on your account page, you use to be able to click the item title which would take you to a manage page for the ad. And this URL could be right or middle clicked to open the page in a new tab. A week or so ago, they changed this and now the link just goes to a regular page for the ad as anyone would see it. FYI I do know about the Edit link, but I want the manage page. Also you can't middle/right click the Edit link (or Delete, etc) in Firefox, to open in a new tab. You can still get to the manage page for the ad if you type it manually, so want a script to do that.
I need to take a URL like this (as you get when click on the ad title now on your account page): http://nashville.craigslist.org/for/1234567890.html The "for" is the category the item is listed in (General, Electronics, etc), so it can change, and of course the #'s change for each ad. And I just need to take the number from that URL and add it to this URL (as I did here): https://post.craigslist.org/manage/1234567890 Looking at the HTML, the plain "manage" URL for each ad is there, it's just not available on the webpage.
