Andrew, please, less noise and more info. You are getting really
annoying lately.

Noorani, the source parameter is a code, which you had to request. I'm
saying had 'cause, as a few hours ago, Twitter decided to remove the
request form for new applications using the Basic Auth. See
http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk/browse_thread/thread/ce57405a08483877

I guess the safe way is check if there is a new version of the library
you're using that uses OAuth instead of Basic Auth or look for another
library. Twitter keeps a list of libraries here:

 Do I have to pass something really special in the source parameter?

Come on guys, simmer down. I completely agree with the teach a man to fish
philosophy. If you see someone new, direct them to resources to help
themselves. Sometimes it is hand-holding that is appropriate, other times
it's teaching.

To the original question, we are shortly deprecating the ability to register
for source parameters [1].

If you already have a source parameter, you pass the parameter name as the
value of the HTTP header parameter 'source'.

The best thing to do would be to scour the archives here. As the sentiment
above illustrates, this has been discussed many times in the past [2].

 Mr. Andy Badera! It seems you have never used TweetDeck or Seesmic or
 PeopleBrowsr or FriendFeed or TwitterFox that's why you've said like
 that.  Please if you don't know any thing then don't term it as
 impossible.

 Is any there anyone else who can guide me?

   The only thing that is making me crazy
   that when I submit a tweet from my application it puts from web and

   TweetDeck, Seesmic, etc do. I would like to tell you that in the API

   target='_blank'Foo/a but still it shows web instead of Foo.
   Do I have to pass something really special in the source parameter?
   Any Ideas?
   Thanks in advance!

the header option is actually available.

Hi Dough,

I do have my source parameter registered, however when i do a post and
set the source parameter, it still displays as web
Ive tried various source parameters, and sometimes it translates to
some random URL on github.com !
advise please...

 Come on guys, simmer down. I completely agree with the teach a man to fish
 philosophy. If you see someone new, direct them to resources to help
 themselves. Sometimes it is hand-holding that is appropriate, other times
 it's teaching.

 To the original question, we are shortly deprecating the ability to register
 for source parameters [1].

 If you already have a source parameter, you pass the parameter name as the
 value of the HTTP header parameter 'source'.

 The best thing to do would be to scour the archives here. As the sentiment
 above illustrates, this has been discussed many times in the past [2].
