[twitter-dev] edit application - time estimation until changes committed
I've edited my twitter app several times(change app name, description,icon) and each change took a very long time until i was able to actually see it. How long does it take until changes on twitter app take effect?

[twitter-dev] Re: Incorrect search results
Just a note, we fixed the problem. The ID that was not working was created a while ago an never used until now. We just set the tweets to be private, saved, logged out, then logged in, set tweets to public, saved. After that refresh of the parameters things are working. Seems it just needed some sort of database refresh since it was an old, inactive id.

I have examples of a user who has posted but his results are not viewable by either search api or web page. The tweets are visible in the users timeline and those that follow the user, but not in search. The user settings allow his tweets to be public. Another user works fine and has posts immediately available in all searches and followers. The settings for these two users appear to be the same. Any advice on how to debug and what the rules for the search availability of tweets.

[twitter-dev] Re: oAuth and Direct Message
I solved the problem. I did not have an between my two parameters in the POST body. Adding between the text and user parameter fixed it. Thanks Matt.

In all honesty this is most likely email formatting problems but I wanted to point it out just in case. * Your text is encoded three times which isn't good and could be the source of the problem depending on what else you are doing when you send your request. I want to rule it out as a symptom so can you take a look at that, and why it is encoded one extra time. When I run tests I see my text string similar to text%3Djust%2520a%2520simple %2520message%2520test. yours, in it's current encoding, would read as just%252520a%252520simple%252520message%252520test.

Are you still experiencing problems with this? In answer to your question there isn't anything special required for signing requests to send direct messages. If you are still having problems can you provide us with your signature base string (without any tokens/keys).

[twitter-dev] 401 Invalid / used nonce
I have a small sample application I use for testing. This uses a saved token and key. The application works fine. I am able to get timelines, post status updates, etc. When moving this application to another system I now get the invalid / used nonce on calls to the twitter api from this application when using it on the new system. I have three systems I have tried, two work and one does not. The error invalid /used nonce does not tell me what is wrong. All the systems have the same version of java and are running the exact same application code. Below is some trace information. Does anyone see something wrong with my signature in the failing system vs the working systems.

[twitter-dev] Widget Profile - Tweet Background floating above lightbox
I have added a Twitter Profile Widget to a website I am developing. It works well and looks good but I have a slight problem in that same web page invokes a lightbox using mootools and the 'tweet background', not the whole widget, floats above my lightbox when displayed. It could be a 'z-index' modification but all the same it is strange that the whole widget isn't consistently floating above the lightbox. How can I change this please so that it doesn't do this? Thank you DS
