Kijiji changed all the div tags. Many are alpha-numeric strings instead of being human-readable.

We can talk about it, let me know how to reach you. It's even worst than I thought though, the sponsored and top ads are now labelled dynamically with javascript, so you can't differentiate them with beautifulsoup anymore.

I did some quick and dirty changes with minimal testing in this fork: https://github.com/closewait/Kijiji-Scraper.
I'll do a pull request after more testing.
