[twitter-dev] xAuth - sometimes success response, sometimes Error-response

Hello, I´m using xAuth in an ActionScript 3.0 Project. I still have problems that I sometimes get a successful response, and a couple of times a faulty response. If I get a bad response, then I have the HTTP status code 401 with following error message: Failed to validate oauth signature and

Creating a new Twitter app. I am thinking whether I should save the users images (profile and background) on the local server or hotlink it instead? Whats the e-etiquette for this? Does Twitter encourage us to hotlink images? -- Twitter developer documentation and resources:

I believe it's okay to directly use the URLs given in responses (like the user's profile image url), but you'll quickly run into issues where those URLs will stop working when someone changes their profile image. I suggest keeping a copy of the image cached yourself and updating it every so

If you simply use time() then you'll get the correct timestamp, assuming that the server's clock is correct. Timezones do not influence time(). Tom On 10/5/10 3:29 PM, Knutsford Software wrote: PHP has now been upgraded to 5.2 on the server but it is now failing with Invalid / used nonce

2010-10-05 Thread Matt Harris
Twitter Search only contains Tweets for ~5 days so there isn't a way to 'find' the Tweets you are looking for using the Twitter APIs directly. Instead, we recommend you 'track' the keywords you are interested in using the Streaming API. This will allow you to aggregate all the Tweets that match

It's likely not the nonce that is invalid in this case -- or the timestamp. In this case, the error specifically is indicating that it couldn't validate the request. Does the alternate 401 vs success happen with the exact same credentials, or are you using different credentials? Taylor On Mon,
