The problem is in my languages we have 3 extra characters called. So in twitter I get this error message: Invalid Unicode value in one or more parameters So the problem is that I have to pass my String as utf-8, I think so at least. Is it a way to URL encode a String in as3?

View 1 Repliesi have a website like ustream, where user can register and create live channels and publish live video using FMLE.
Now i want to check wether a particular channel is online or offline. I have stream name for particular channel. My website is coded in PHP. I have tried using getLiveStreamStats function, it works fine where the XML file is not heavy. I mean number of subscribers are less. Then i can just check the Publisher Tag. if it exists that means stream video is live, else not.
But problem arrives when the number of subscribers are high. The XML file do not loads in PHP, and it takes too much time to load the page.
what can be done to just check if the xml file has publisher tag. and display if the stream is live or not
I want to retrieve the list of live stream name.

View 1 RepliesThis is probably a stupid question but I have spent the last 5 days searching the net and trying different ways to load a twitter feed into my air application for android (I would like to port it over to iOS but it needs building first)The best results I had was loading the twitter XML feed
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
var theURL_ur:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/weliebeneath.xml");
var loader_ul:URLLoader = new URLLoader(theURL_ur);
loader_ul.addEventListener("complete", fileLoaded);

I am trying to post a "tweet" to my twitter using Flex (using the Flex 3.5 SDK and Flex Builder 4 if that makes any difference). On an mxml file I've created a button simply to make it easy to call an AS3 function, and in the function, I'm making a URL request. Obviously I'm doing something wrong, because my tweet ain't posting. I got these variables in the curl request provided by Twitter themselves, which actually worked. My guess is that I'm formatting something incorrectly, but I don't know what that is. Here is the code I'm using:

I have read a lot about parsing JSON with Actionscript. Originally it was said to use this library. [URL] but it seems Flash Player 11 has native support for it now. My problem is that I cannot find examples or help that takes you from beginning to end of the process. Everything I have read seems to start in the middle. I have no real experience with JSON so this is a problem. I don't even know how to point ActionScript to the JSON file it needs to read.
I have a project with a tight deadline that requires me to read twitter through JSON. I need to get the three most recent tweets, along with the user who posted it, their twitter name and the time those tweets were posted.
The back end to this is already set up I believe by the development team here, therefor my JSON files or XML just needs to be pointed to and then I need to display the values in the interface text boxes I have already designed and created.
I'm trying to pull a Twitter text based update in to Flash using actionscript 2.0

I am using the Tweetr AS3 library in Flash. Authentication, timeline retrieval and posting to Twitter all work fine. For some reason the Retweet function works only a small part of the time and fails most of the times - I get a Stream Error #2032 . When checking in Firebug I see that the call is made [URL].. but it returns a404 error. I can't see any difference between the times that it works and the times it doesn't.
Are there any known issues with Twitter's Retweet API that may cause this problem?
I know how to get json data into flash with twitter's search api because the array names normally aren't weird, but I'm not really too experienced with json. For the trends api data, I'm not sure how to access it because the array name is the date and theres spaces and colons in it, and I'm not really sure what to do. Normally in flash to get the json data I'd do something like
json.trends[0].2012-01-21 01:20.name
but that doesn't work. Can someone tell me how to pull out the name data when the array name is the date. I apologize if I'm calling these things the wrong name, I'm not too sure on what their proper names are. [URL]
Does anybody know if there is way to make a flash chat with twitter?It seems the biggest hurdle is that when you twitter somebody with @username, the message doesn't show up on his main page ( it only shows in his personal log in page ) so I can't call the tweets from other ppl back to the flash app.

View 4 RepliesAm I using TwitterScript to retrieve Twitter data for inside a Flash site. Due to Twitter's crossdomain policy, I need to setup a php proxy...Firstly I made a simple one
<?php
$url = $_GET['url'];
readfile($url);

but I then get this error
URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration
which is only resolved by getting my host to turn fopen() on, which I don't want to do.
Then I found this
<?php
function get_content($url)
{
$ch = curl_init();
