regarding the Twitter API 1.1 and the brand new PHP Script

Ultimate yr Twitter announced model 1.1 of it’s API. essentially the most significant change was a new requirement that each one requests must be authenticated. that change prevents javascript-only applications (just like the tweet ticker) from communicating with the Twitter API instantly. the only solution is so as to add a server side script. the other vital modification is the display requirements.
