Yeah, accept that you've been smacked. VB.NET for Windows Forms has no HTTPUtility.URLEncode - it's purely ASP.NET. Dumbass troll. On Aug 13, 10:54 pm, Andrew Badera wrote: > For general encoding, yes, HttpUtility, or Server. > > And Boijan pointed out the OAuth UrlEncode function as well for yo

Straight out of OAuthBase and Shannon Whitley's work: protected string UrlEncode(string value) { StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder(); if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(value)) { foreach (char symbol in value) {

Will there be a "retweeted from " field? I would love to get this data to see which Twitter client/tool aids and promotes spreading of tweets.
