    A very quick plain JavaScript method, assuming it’s the URL of the current page (in window.location.href)

    var urlNum = window.location.href.split('/').pop();

    .split('/') obviously chops the URL up into an array, based on divisions by /. Since you only need the last part, it is probably the easiest method.

    .pop() removes the last element from the array returned by .split() and returns it.
