In my app, the list names are quite descriptive, so until this gets
fixed - and I think it will be - I send description=name which makes
some sense as the originally input name is transformed (loss of
capitals and special characters) and does not appear in the Twitter UI
anyway.

Any Ideas?

Hi Alexey,
If your access token was issued while your application was still in
read-only mode, you'll need to reissue it by first going to
http://twitter.com/settings/connections and revoking your application
permission, then re-negotiate your access token. It will then be a
read/write access
Thanks! It helped!

I just need to know that is there any problem in getting data from API?

What are the specific API methods that you are calling? Can you share the
specific user? When you say neither get any error nor result do you mean
the HTTP response is completely empty or that within whatever
library/implementation you are using the calls do not yield results nor
exceptions?
Just a wild guess. Try this:

We are building an application client that is browser based. We're

for the client, which would make your application vulnerable. So, no,
you should not use JavaScript for OAuth. Not before Twitter starts using
OAuth 2.0.

So yes, I was correct (at least with search) that a web based solution is
severely limited compared to a desktop. It will share usage among all it's
users while a desktop client can spread the load amongst its users IPs. That
stinks in my opinion. (I'm a web developer.)

Hi Martin,
In the example you give the timestamp you are using converts to one
from the year 1971 so you want to check how you are creating that. The
correct timestamp value is the current epoch time in seconds.
Without seeing your basestring it is difficult to know what could be
going wrong.
Well remember with Search you don't need to proxy from your server -
instead the Search API supports JSONP so you can run it directly from
the website.
Regarding Toms proxy comment. I think Tom was suggesting it for the
userstreams functionality. As userstreams require a long poll
connection
Fair enough.
