This code is no longer supported. I recommend using Twitter’s API.

Hi!

first of all thanks for the code. very easy and very handy!
but unfortunately i have some problems with it.
on mac (firefox & safari) it shows a small vertical scrollbar for every single tweet, which i can’t remove via css (overflow:auto or similar). do you have any idea what else i could try?
and is it possible to customise the space between the tweets?

This really shouldn’t be used anymore.. but yeah.. use CSS.

This is great. Is there anyway of changing the font style & colour?

This is cool – I needed to add a twitter feed with no issues and minimal coding — thanks for letting the public use this.

Cheers

I think some of the code you posted in the comment was stripped out. The code that you changed,

date(“i”,filemtime(“twitter_$user.json”)) < date(“i”)+4

was designed as a cache system, to only pull a file if it was less than 5 minutes old (because of rate limiting).

If you don’t want to cache it, you can probably pull out the entire file storing procedure.

hey guys
i was having an issue with this feed pulling old tweets, mainly from the day i ftp’d it

i fixed it by changing this

if(file_exists(“twitter_$user.json”) && date(“i”,filemtime(“twitter_$user.json”)) mktime() )

hope this can help someone else
