Re: [twitter-dev] Tweet button not working with a 'localhost' data-url?
Why would you want to generate a link that would only work for you? Just accept that it will not work and you'll be fine ;-) Tom On 10/6/10 10:29 PM, Olivier K wrote: > Hi, I'm currently testing the tweet button for our website.

Re: [twitter-dev] Tweet button not working with a 'localhost' data-url?
http://localhost is not a shareable URL so this error is expected. Instead, if you need to test things locally you might want to add a development domain name into your computers hosts file instead.

There were recently some anti-XSS patches made to our code that might be blocking your use of "localhost". -j On Wed, Oct 6, 2010 at 1:29 PM, Olivier K wrote: > Hi, I'm currently testing the tweet button for our website.

Re: [twitter-dev] Tweet Button Not Working
Hi Bruce, Glad to hear it worked. We've seen this problem with iWeb but don't have a better solution than data-url at the moment. If we do find a way we'll update the documentation and let everyone know. Best, Matt On Fri, Aug 27, 2010 at 11:36 PM, Bruce Aguilar wrote: > I think that may have worked.

Re: [twitter-dev] Tweet Button Not Working
I think that may have worked. It's a pain in the patootie that I have to manually enter the web address in for each blog post, but still, it's better than nothing I guess. Thanks!

You might find some help with working with the Tweet Button and iWeb here: http://bit.ly/tweet-button-iweb Taylor On Fri, Aug 27, 2010 at 7:20 AM, Yensid98 wrote: > I've added the Tweet Button to my website for easy sharing of my > content, but it's not working properly.
