woolyg Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Hi all, Does anyone know of a script or class that allows a twitter account to be updated from the text inputted into an input form? I want to be able to input text into one of my content management forms, and upon processing the script, have it automatically show on my twitter account. I've done a few searches, but none are jumping out at me..! Thanks WoolyG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woolyg Posted May 17, 2010 Author Share Posted May 17, 2010 Hi Ken, Thanks for that - I'll look into it. I found a pretty simplistic bit of code that I'm going to try too: /* settings */ $username = 'myUser'; $password = '**********'; $format = 'xml'; //alternative: json $message = 'Tweet goes here!'; /* work */ $result = shell_exec('curl http://twitter.com/statuses/update.'.$format.' -u '.$username.':'.$password.' -d status="'.str_replace('"','\"',$message).'"'); echo $result; Cheers WoolyG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
