Write your own script and query the API yourself (seriously). That's what the API is for. Also, why would #3 be *better* for clickjacking than an <iframe>? By copying and putting the HTML in your own document, the document is in *your* domain context, not Twitter's. -- ------------------------------------ personal: http://www.cameronkaiser.com/ -- Cameron Kaiser * Floodgap Systems * www.floodgap.com * ckai...@floodgap.com -- People are weird. -- Law & Order SVU ---------------------------------------
