As far as putting the id in the url it was a way of distinguishing the job form others. As I said a number of listings will be made on the same day with exactly the same content with regard to the title. My thoughts therefore were that if the id plus the tile were included in the url then this would distinguish them. If this is not a good idea then any suggestions would be welcomed as to alternatives.
