Sorry, no.
I'm using rawurlencode in PHP, which encodes %20
still failing.

// snip
$key = rawurlencode($this-consumer_secret).''.rawurlencode($this-
token_secret);
$this-args['oauth_signature'] = base64_encode( hash_hmac( 'sha1',
$str, $key, true ) );
// snip

The + - %20 solution seems to work for me.
I am writing my own OAuth library in Java, and java.net.URLEncoder
encodes
the space character to +.
There could be a better way, but replacing the resulted + with
%20,
status update on Twitter now seems to work.

You shouldn't use java.net.URLEncoder as it encodes more characters than the
OAuth spec specifies should be encoded.

Check this thread for a solution for VB.NET libraries (and perhaps a
good starting point for other languages).

This may solve your problem, but it doesn't work for me.  I am getting
errors for API calls that have no spaces, such as create friend,
destroy, etc.

[Duane Roelands]

Dang, sorry.  Create is working for me.  There are almost certainly
other differences in the encoding between HttpUtility.URLEncode and
HttpUtility.UrlPathEncode.  Is your library written in .NET?  If so,
can you change the encoding on the requests that are failing to see if
it fixes the issue for you?

Using Perl libraries.  Will mess around and see what I can do.  Super
annoying.
