Hello Tom,

unfortunately, it still doesn´t work. When my basestring does not
include x_auth_password and x_auth_username I don´t get an successfull
response?

Now I am doing it as it is described in the documentation on
http://dev.twitter.com/pages/xauth.

I get an successfull Response with following parameter:
oauth_token=1177....&oauth_token_secret=WfLZlea.......&user_id=myID6&screen_name=myName&x_auth_expires=0


Now, I will get the Friends Timeline with the URL
http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/friends_timeline.xml and the
following GET-Parameter:

oauth_consumer_key, oauth_signature, oauth_token, oauth_consumer_key
and oauth_token_secret

When I send the request with this parameters, it will open a new
window, where should I enter my user data.

After this, I get an error response with following message:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<hash>
  <request>/1/statuses/friends_timeline.xml?
oauth_consumer_key=iTAqwZGGBLrC95j9N7VJA&amp;oauth_nonce=41A58B82-45EA-

request>
  <error>Incorrect signature</error>
</hash>


Can you tell me, what is wrong on my request?
