Hi,
I hope somebody can help me and point me in the right direction in what I am doing wrong! Basically I am making a GET call for some favorited tweets and then storing them in a PHP variable which I can then use to write out a twitter feed based on this data.
I can get this working uing the code below. However. The problem I am having is that it only works for a short period then stops working. I think it is something to do with the time() perhaps? Am I doing somethnig wrong! Can it not ben done this way?
Thanks in advance!
$oauth_consumer_key = ‘-------------------’;
$oauth_consumer_key_secret = ‘-------------------’;
$oauth_token = ‘-------------------’;
$oauth_token_secret = ‘-------------------’;
$oauth_nonce = ‘-------------------’;
$oauth_signature = ‘-------------------’;
$oauth_timestamp = time();
$oauth_hash = ‘’;
$oauth_hash .= ‘oauth_consumer_key=XXXX&’;
$oauth_hash .= ‘oauth_nonce=’.$oauth_nonce.’&’;
$oauth_hash .= ‘oauth_signature_method=HMAC-SHA1&’;
$oauth_hash .= ‘oauth_timestamp=’.$oauth_timestamp.’&’;
