Client-side Twitter API method using XMLHttpRequest?

Question

Does (or did) Twitter ever have a method in their API that allowed client-side HTTP requests without producing any cross-domain issues? I have a site that used the following url: http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=from%3adaleyjem&rpp=3&page=1&callback=?

It once worked, but now it doesn't.

Is there something else I should be using, or do I have to make a request to my own server-side code?

Answer 1

Alright, so I figured out that while this might not be the solution for each person's special case, I ended up doing a tag include with a callback at the end of the URL... like this:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/daleyjem.json?callback=showTwitter&amp;count=1"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;

And then just created a function called "showTwitter"
