Has anyone seen a reliable php script for posting to craigslist?

I suppose you could write one yourself with little hassle (cURL or maybe SimpleBrowser), although that could be considered botting.
Why do you need one?

I was trying to create a system where people could manage their real estate listings on their own system, and when they submit the entry into their database, it would insert it into a craigslist listing and then log the url.

Hmm... I don't know if Craigslist would condone such automation. However, it probably would be okay: done properly, they'd never know. You probably want to use cURL, since you're going to need https.

I'd stop right here tbh, get written consent before even attempting such a project, else you could "End up in court"™
