Here's an updated list of URLs for each individual page of the WSJ. What I didn't say earlier and what LightofHonor didn't understand was that you also have to change the letter of the SECTION and start over at page 1. That means the original list of URLs from above will stop working after the first 20 or so, because they were all generated with an 'A' in the front and section A is usually only 18 - 20 pages long.

Here's the list, broken down by section, with 20 pages for each section. Depending on the section that may be too long for some (ie some higher number links won't work) or not enough (you won't see all the pages without editing URLs to add more pages on your own). I've also only done sections A through D. As the poster above has mentioned, there are usually more sections than that. Someone else is welcome to copy my list and add to it for everyone's benefit.

Hope this helps somebody!

If you are wondering what to look for...check out these examples:

From the 11/20/08 WSJ Section A, page 11, one day before Verizon launched Blackberry Storm --> http://online.wsj.com/documents/prin...1-20081120.pdf

Same day, Apple had a full page ad touting the iPhone J.D. Power "business ranking" in the tech section on B10 --> http://online.wsj.com/documents/prin...0-20081120.pdf

Now we just need a script that will load each one in a tab and I can just ctrl-tab through them while auto-reloading every few minutes

I hope they don't think we're trying to DDOS them

Ugh...I am afraid you might be right. I just checked the properties on today's front page of the A section and B section, which were "created" on 5/18 @ 4:00:38 AM and 4:12:11 AM respectively. Well past midnight ET.
