There is no one-click way to do this (if you think about it, if there were then the clickjackers would have a field day). You *can* pass a predefined status string to Twitter and then the user can examine it and click Submit; there are various examples of this you can find in the group archives. But you can't simply build a tweet-button that way. How can I integrate a shortener service? Probably the easiest way is to preshorten the URL before you hand it off in your status string. That will depend on your shortener's API. -- personal: http://www.cameronkaiser.com/ -- Cameron Kaiser * Floodgap Systems * www.floodgap.com * ckai...@floodgap.com -- Dread each day as it comes. -- Donald Kaul -

also, take a look at http://dev.twitter.com/anywhere/begin. Sounds like you are looking for a lightweight solution to allow people to share your page to twitter. bitly has a javascript shortener service, which you could call and prepopulate the anywhere dialog box.
