Sorry if I dont understand it right, but you have an id of "Item_SOMENUMBER" as id and just want the SOMENUMBER as post id, right? I have something similiar in one of my applications, the following is tested and works (at least if your prefix does not change):
function getId(realId, prefix) { return realId.replace(prefix, ''); } Hope I understood right and could help you.
