[twitter-dev] coldfusion / twitter status update/
I used to use the basic authentication process with a cfhttp tag but since that doesn't work anymore, has anyone developed a way to post a status update without having to redirect the user to the twitter site using a username and password? -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk?hl=en
Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Twitter status update through a Ajax Post
Looks like cross server Ajax to me. Can't do that because of the same origin design of Ajax. Not sure how it worked before (unless running locally.) Unless my tired eyes are lieing to me, you are not running this inside ASP (runat=server) so that JS is running in the browser.

[twitter-dev] Re: Twitter status update through a Ajax Post
Hello Friends;
In December I wrote a little function to allow users to update our
Twitter status by completing a form embedded in our CMS. This has
worked fine untill last week.
The script simply sends a ajax post to http://twitter.com/statuses/
update.xml
Unfortunately it returns the following error:
Permission denied - line 13
Which is the line stating :
axobj.open(POST,purl,false,my username,my password);
*The my username and my password is replaced with the correct
login details at runtime.
Here is the complete test code:
%...@language=JAVASCRIPT CODEPAGE=1252%
html
head
title/title
script type=text/javascript
function asp_twitter_update(strMsg)
{
var axobj,purl;
purl = http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml;;
axobj = new ActiveXObject(Microsoft.XMLHTTP);
axobj.open(POST,purl,false,my username,my password);
axobj.setRequestHeader(Content-type, application/x-www-
form-
urlencoded);
//axobj.setRequestHeader(Connection, close);
axobj.send(status=+Server.URLEncode(strMsg));
}
asp_twitter_update(This is the new status message to be
posted);
/script
/head
body
/body
/html
I have spent around 18 hours so far trying to solve this problem, but
no luck so far.
Any and all help in resolving this will be greatly appreciated.
Regards

Ajax cannot send to end points outside of your server. You have to use a
local proxy. I guess the other problem is that you have no user agent
specified.
In any case, storing a username and password readable in JavaScript is a
terrible idea. Anyone looking at the source of this page could send
Tweets on your behalf.

Re: [twitter-dev] Twitter status update through a Ajax Post
hi!
i see nothing obviously wrong with this - is this hosted somewhere so we can
hit it with a browser and see what's being generated by the browser request?

[twitter-dev] Twitter status update with Basic Auth Lua
Hi guys, I'm using a desktop platform with a Lua scripting environment. The app I'm making is standalone and does not run in a browser. It can connect to http resources. I'm trying out a simple test to update a status but web services isn't a strong point of mine. I'm following Basic Auth for now and looking to implement OAuth later. The problem I'm having seems to be waiting for the xml response from https://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml I've url encoded my status message and am requesting a https resource similar to https://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml?status=; .. url_encoded_msg I've created post data object setting type to application/x-www-form- urlencoded and added the following key/values to the post data Postdata.addValue(X-Twitter-Client, me) Postdata.addValue(X-Twitter-Client-Version, 1.0 ) Postdata.addValue(X-Twitter-Client-URL, www.my_url.com) and finally Postdata.addValue( Authorization, authValue) where authValue is the string Basic .. Base64.Encode (username:password) I then send this off to twitter url https://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml?status=; .. url_encoded_msg with the postdata. However my code ends up in a loop waiting for the xml response and eventually timing out. I'd like to know if I've got the right steps and values for PostData. thanks
Re: [twitter-dev] Twitter status update with Basic Auth Lua
Your basic auth value should be in a header not the post body. The other X- values I think also go into headers, but I don't provide those really so not sure. I'm not even sure if twitter pays attention to those.

Re: [twitter-dev] Twitter status update with Basic Auth Lua
Correct on the headers... Also note that if you're making a post, you don't want status=... in the query string, you want it added to the body of the request. Are you using a specific Lua HTTP library? ---Mark On Tue, Dec 1, 2009 at 8:45 AM, Josh Roesslein jroessl...@gmail.com wrote: Your basic auth value should be in a header not the post body.
