That's great Jesse that you've found a method that works. I didn't
know that was a way to force a reload of widget.js.
Note that widget.js only needs to be re-sourced once to render all
Tweet buttons on the page, so you can just render plain tweet links
and then re-source the script.
An alternative method I've found successful is to take a local copy of
widget.js and give its main function a name:
var twttr=window.twttr||{};(twttr.showWidgets = function()...
(Note that the parenthesis and the end has to be moved before the
"()").
The AJAX response can the just include a "twttr.showWidgets()" call.
Twitter should really alter widget.js to do something similar, just
like the Facebook sharer allows you to call "FB.Share.renderPass()".
Another alternative that should work, but doesn't, probably because of
a Twitter bug, is to render the button directly as an iframe, as
described at http://dev.twitter.com/pages/tweet_button . AJAX updates
then work fine, except for a JavaScript error about a missing
twttr.updateTweetCount function. Is this a bug in
http://platform.twitter.com/widgets/tweet_button.html ?
