I've been banging my head on this issue for the past 3-4 days to the point that my skull has attained a soggy, squishy quality...so any help would be most appreciated.
I have a Twitter account that I want to post simple periodic updates to from a website I own. I can successfully do this: <cfhttp url="http://twitter.com/account/verify_credentials.xml"; method="get" username="#variables.Tusername#" password="#variables.Tpassword#"> That works everytime. However, this does not work: <cfhttp url="http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml"; method="POST" username="#variables.Tusername#" password="#variables.Tpassword#" charset="UTF-8"> <cfhttpparam type="FORMFIELD" name="user" value="#variables.Tusername#"> <cfhttpparam type="FORMFIELD" name="password" value="#variables.Tpassword#"> <cfhttpparam type="FORMFIELD" name="status" value="#variables.Tstatus#"> </cfhttp> Not just that but any variation of the post to update.xml fails and the fail reason is: "Could not authenticate you." I've tried it in just about every combination I can think of. I've scoured Twitter's API docs, Google and everywhere in between and can't get this to go. I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. This seems a really simply thing but it's driving me to distraction. I don't believe there's a setting in Twitter itself that is causing the issue...but perhaps I'm wrong. Any help/assistance would be most welcome and appreciated. Thanks in advance.
