You're getting 403 errors from Twitter. You're being rate limited
because you're not passing a user agent. From the search API wiki:
Applications must have a meaningful and unique User Agent when using
this method. A HTTP Referrer is expected but not required. Search
traffic that does not include a User Agent will be rate limited to
fewer API calls per hour than applications including a User Agent
string.
Try using curl instead of file_get_contents to set a meaningful user
agent....

If you're embedding that URL in XML you will need to XML encode it...
In this specific case the ampersand (&q=...) needs to be replaced

You sure that's where the error is? there have been numerous
reported problems with PHP's JSON decoder that it doesn't handle the
very large numbers of Twitter's IDs well.

Hello
I am trying to search twitter content using a mySQL/PHP entry in a
table:
$contents = file_get_contents(
"http://search.twitter.com/search.json?
lang=en&rpp=5&q=".urlencode($row[topicTitle]));
$json = json_decode($contents);
I am returning the results via AJAX as an XML file
The problem that I get is:
XML Parsing Error: not well-formed
Location:http://www.domain.com/path/to/my/script.php?&id=2765
Line Number 77, Column 44: [refresh_url] => ?
since_id=5126537872&q=Indonesia
where "Indonesia" happens to be the value of $row[topicTitle]
The problem is with the value of $row[topicTitle] -- doesn't matter
if the term is "Indonesia" or any other word or phrase (I tried a
bunch) -- I keep getting that XML error
I also tried enclosing it with single quotes, same error
help please?
