[twitter-dev] Re: Change label color of @anywhere Tweet-box
Add the HTML in a span on your label parameter:
example:
twitter(#tweetform).tweetBox({
counter: true,
height: 100,
width: 400,
label: span style=\color: #B3D565; font-size: .9em;\Your
label text goes here:/span,
defaultContent: @username I'm using your TweetBox!... ,
});
});
Because twitter serves the tweetbox in an iframe, adding HTML to your
placeholder div or CSS wont affect the elements in the tweetbox.
There may be a more elegant way to do this using CSS in your
javascript but this approach works for the label at least.
Hope this helps

[twitter-dev] @anywhere login code samples
Hi there,
Some of the @anywhere sample code in the Working with the current
user section required some tweaks to get working.
The text specifies a User Callback function but the sample code does
not.
Also, the twttr.anywhere() function does not appear to work with an
API key, instead I specify it with the anywhere.js file.
Here is a modified code snippet that appears to work:
//var anywhereApiKey = abcdefghi-123;
//twttr.anywhere(anywhereApiKey, 1.0.0, onAnywhereLoad);
twttr.anywhere(onAnywhereLoad);
function onAnywhereLoad(twitter)
{
// Conditionally display the Connect Button based on current logged
in state:
if (twitter.isConnected)
{
twitter.User.current(user_callback);
}
else
{
twitter(#twitter-connect-placeholder).connectButton();
}
};
function user_callback(currentUser)
{
screenName = currentUser.data('screen_name');
profileImage = currentUser.data('profile_image_url');
profileImageTag = img src=' + profileImage + '/;
$('#twitter-connect-placeholder').innerHTML = Logged in as +
profileImageTag + + screenName;
};

Re: [twitter-dev] Is it OK to store token in Windows Registry?
The Windows Registry is NOT secure -- it is at best obscure. Is it a good place to store information? Maybe. Matter of opinion. Consider a secured machine datastore as well. However anyone with physical access to the machine has everything they need to access anything they want, given a little patience and tech skill. Why do you need a secure location for a user token? It's just the user who has access, right? Or are you referring to your application's key, and not the user key? If so, there's really no good way to secure that with current iterations of OAuth.

[twitter-dev] Wrapping up Hovercards into a Wordpress Plugin
Hi guys, I've been tinkering around with the Twitter API @anywhere and I've cobbled together a wordpress plugin that allows hovercards to be displayed on blogs, specifically my blog. However, when testing on friend's sites, whilst the actual hovering works, clickthroughs don't. I suspect the reason is obvious - API keys the fact that my blog's URL is required for callbacks etc. Is there a way I can package it up so that users can download a wordpress plugin, activate it it's good to go? Ideally I don't want people signing up for API keys left, right centre as it just seems a little pointless. Does Wordpress have an API key that can be used with @anywhere?

[twitter-dev] API errors with Python Tools
Hey all, I've been using the Python Twitter Tools library to access the API, which is beautiful and great to use but as far as I can tell has no systematic error handling. There is no distinction between temporary errors (e.g., connection failed, rate limit exceeded, etc) and permanent ones (e.g, user account deleted). Furthermore, library itself doesn't even return the error code--just a chunk of unparsed HTML that it gets from Twitter. So, it pretty much means that error handling is a roll-your-own kind of issue. Have any of you found good ways of dealing with this problem? Do other Twitter libraries provide better error handling? (Hopefully other Python libraries do this better, but I would be willing to switch languages if necessary).

[twitter-dev] Annotations - survivable and searchable?
Regarding the annotations that were announced yesterday at the Developer's conference: 1. Will those annotations survive for replies and direct messages of original tweets? For example, if I were to send a tweet and annotate with an id that was germain to my application, any tweet that was a reply of the original tweet or subsequently down the line, I'd like that id to appear in annotations. 2. I am assuming they will be searchable? The idea being that I annotate my original tweet with an id that's pertinent to my application and any tweet that comes out after as a reply or somehow related to that original tweet I can search and find easily. Is this something you are thinking about? Thanks, Scott -- Subscription settings: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk/subscribe?hl=en

[twitter-dev] Re: User Stream's API usage
John,
I know it is still some ways off into the future, but would you
consider segmenting out the areas of user streams that don't have
privacy implications, to make those parts of the stream available to
services as a higher priority compared with the rest?
For me, social graph changes are the biggest pain point in terms of
processing and delays (and in some cases impracticality) in providing
services to users.
I can imagine that there will be scalability issues, because a service
will have to be able to subscribe to the streams of hundreds of
thousands or more users.
Nonetheless, consideration will be much appreciated.

Would appreciate any feedback or thoughts on this.

I understand June 2010 is the cutoff for basic auth. Some sites may be provided with xAuth on a limited basis in regards to moving everybody off basic authentication, we originally envisioned this as a mechanism for developers to exchange all the username and passwords they have in their databases for OAuth tokens en masse. Still trying to wrap my head around oAuth Echo. From what I understand, delegation from a Twitter app like TweetDeck (for example) would pass its oAuth access tokens to our site to pass to Twitter. A few questions: - xAuth seems straight-forward if granted temporary access. I assume these tokens are the same as if the end-user went through the normal oAuth process in a browser? New users to the 3rd party web site would be using oAuth. - Typically if a user is sharing a media file through our site and they are NOT registered (no account in our system) and have never logged in using oAuth on our site, we create an account for them. Can we store the access tokens from an external app when we create their account? If so, would there be a conflict if an event occurs in which we post a status update on their behalf without the delegation in the header? Or is it a one-time use thing? - Once the user visits our site and logs into Twitter using oAuth, we'll store those tokens. Is it best practice to use those whenever the same user shares a media file through an external app or should the delegated tokens always be used? - Finally, while Twitter may be depreciating basic auth and everyone (if they haven't already) will be using oAuth, is there a plan for users who use 3rd party Twitter apps for mobile devices that HAVE NOT upgraded to the latest version yet? Although xAuth is geared towards desktop and mobile apps, there may be quite a few users who have not upgraded their app trying to either use it or share media with it through sites like ours. - I did notice that on this pagehttp://apiwiki.twitter.com/Authentication, its confusing as to whether or not basic auth will be completely depreciated. If it will be, someone should update it as its misleading. Thanks in advance! Best, Y.
[twitter-dev] Re: Is it OK to store token in Windows Registry?
I agree with the obscure comment. For better or worse, I am trying to design a solution for a semi- public machine, so multiple users may be using the same application installation, and each user has their own registry settings. (The other registry settings are innocuous, but I am trying to trade off user convenience with user security.) If I understand it correctly, the token secret is tied to a user- external-application tuple. If so, then just having the token secret would only allow a malicious 3rd-party to post a Twitter status using the authorized application. Since we require the use authenticate to Twitter at the start of each application session, I was hoping that this would mitigate the risk of storing the token secret I the registry. (Of course, I am also expecting the user of a semi-public machine to close the application when they are finished…) Further thoughts? On Apr 15, 7:53 am, Andrew Badera and...@badera.us wrote: The Windows Registry is NOT secure -- it is at best obscure. Is it a good place to store information? Maybe. Matter of opinion. Consider a secured machine datastore as well. However anyone with physical access to the machine has everything they need to access anything they want, given a little patience and tech skill. Why do you need a secure location for a user token? It's just the user who has access, right? Or are you referring to your application's key, and not the user key? If so, there's really no good way to secure that with current iterations of OAuth.

[twitter-dev] Verify user connect with @anywhere?
I am wanting to use @anywhere to allow users to login to my website,
but I am curious about how to implement proper security.
Right now when a user hits the Connect With Twitter button on my
website and signs in via the popup window, the button changes to say
Connected with Twitter. So far so good.
I can then run things like:
screenName = twitter.currentUser.data('screen_name');
However, I want to be able to send the currentUser's id or twitter
username to my server to log them into my website as well. I want to
check their id/username against my database, and store it if it
doesn't exist, then log them in.
So, the response that I get from running:
twttr.anywhere(onAnywhereLoad);
contains their username/id and some other information, but if I sent
this to my server via javascript to login, there's nothing stopping
someone from making a fake request containing a different username to
login.
With Facebook's Connect API I get a cookie set that I can then use
with my secret to verify that the request is really from Facebook, is
there an equivalent of this in Twitter?
Does this require me to use oAuth?
Again, all I'm trying to do is allow users to sign in to Twitter via
@anywhere on my site then send their username/id to my server to log
them into my application based on that username/id. I just need to be
able to validate that the data being sent to my server (username/id)
was really set by Twitter.
Any thoughts?
