[twitter-dev] Re: whitelist site -- horror story
I was thinking the same thing about the referrer. I rushed over to check on my apps after reading this thread. I know this has been broached before, but it sure would be nice to have a beta site for the devs to test against before changes go live.

I have resolved this problem by changing from GET to POST requests. 14 hours work. I am totally confused why the Get requests that were working for a month no longer work At least my application is working using POST... But I am worried about the reliability of the code I've written Not a good feeling mark
