That's true -- %5BB6, for example, is NOT a UTF-8 encoded codepoint for a character. It's Unicode (or UTF-16). On Fri, Sep 25, 2009 at 20:54, Mageuzi mage...@gmail.com wrote: Hello, I had this same problem. I had to convert all multi-byte characters into their individual bytes. So, for

[twitter-dev] Unexpected 401 Could not authenticate you on some oAuth POST requests

2009-09-26 Thread Arnaud Meunier
Since yesterday, my application’s main account (@twitoaster) received two abnormal 401 errors (both during a POST Request). There are strictly no reasons for such errors to be received (the same requests succeeded a few minutes later) and I was wondering if someone else had recently experienced

[twitter-dev] Problems with rate_limit_status

2009-09-26 Thread Patrick
Hi there, this might be obvious to everybody working longer with the API but to me its a bit unclear: If I call rate_limit_status from a script that I registered at http://twitter.com/oauth and using OAuth I get 2 API calls per hour as as base for my requests. If I call rate_limit_status

[twitter-dev] Accessing User status and other information by email ID

2009-09-26 Thread Alok
Hi Twitter API experts, By going through the REST/SEARCH API, it seems that there no option to get information from twitter using user's email ID. Could you please let me know if it is possible to call API using email ID instead of screen name or user_id or is there any option to get user_id

[twitter-dev] Twitter Rate Limit for IPs

2009-09-26 Thread TwitterNoob
Hi, I recently got whitelisted for 3 IPs which is listed under one single account. Does this mean that each IP will have a rate limit of 20,000 requests/hour for the REST API so collectively all 3 IPs should give 60,000 requests/hour for the REST API or does this mean that all 3 whitelisted IPs

2009-09-26 Thread Jim Renkel
I'm guessing that if you do a request that counts against your rate limit (rate_limit_status requests do not) from just 1 of your IPs, and then request the rate limit status on each of them, you will see that the one that made the non-rate_limit_status request now has 19,999, while the other two

While valid URLs, both http://is.gd/3HsuO,a and http://is.gd/3HsuO,%3Ca; give 404 errors when followed, while http://is.gd/3HsuO; gets a page view. You have to validly delimit URLs when you include them in tweets. If twitter did a shortening on you, then they may have a problem. If you did the

Good luck buddy.. Btw I'm curious, What exactly are you referring to or focussing on when you say 'syntactic meaning of tweets' ? I mean I'd appreciate a clarification on 'syntactic meaning to whom ?' and 'syntactic meaning of tweets in what context ?' Just wondering.. Best Regards, Nalin On
