 * That number is the id of the page stored in the database. You can see the page_id
   by editing a page and looking at the Permalink line just under the Title box.

 * page id comes from the data base that is stored in the post table, you can get
   the id from there. you can edit the id in the table also

 * I STILL cannot find the page_id of the page. In WordPress 3.0.1, the permalink
   does not contain any page_id number… Am I missing something?
    I am trying to 
   find the page ids for certain pages, so I can “exclude” them from displaying 
   in a widget.
 * Any clue?

 * chhowe, go to the Pages section of the admin panel and edit the page in question.
   Notice that the URL ends with something like `/wp-admin/post.php?post=47&action
   =edit` . In this example, `47` is the post/page ID.
