Hi I have currently written some code which uses of the Twitter API and extracts the information required to display my most current tweet on my website. This is all working perfectly but at the minute it is only displaying one tweet and I would like it to display as many as the variable $limit is set to.

I have tried numerous count with while loops but just cannot seem to get my head around the logic of it.

Here is the code im currently using which displays one tweet.


            <?php

$username = "my_twitter_username";
$limit = "2";
$twitter_url = "http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/$username.xml?count=$limit";

$buffer = file_get_contents($twitter_url);
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($buffer);

$status_item = $xml -> status;
$status_id = $xml -> status -> id;
$user_item = $xml -> status -> user;
$user_id = $xml -> status -> user -> screen_name;
$description =  $status_item -> text;
$status_time =  $status_item -> created_at;
$status_img = $user_item -> profile_image_url;

$description = preg_replace("#(^|[\n ])([\w]+?://[\w]+[^ \"\n\r\t< ]*)#", "\\1<a href=\"\\2\" target=\"_blank\">\\2</a>", $description);
        $description = preg_replace("#(^|[\n ])((www|ftp)\.[^ \"\t\n\r< ]*)#", "\\1<a href=\"http://\\2\" target=\"_blank\">\\2</a>", $description);
        $description = preg_replace("/@(\w+)/", "<a href=\"http://www.twitter.com/\\1\" target=\"_blank\">@\\1</a>", $description);
        $description = preg_replace("/#(\w+)/", "<a href=\"http://search.twitter.com/search?q=%23\\1\" target=\"_blank\">#\\1</a>", $description);

echo "
<div class='tweet-wrapper'>
<div class='tweet-img'>
<a href='http://www.twitter.com/la__academia' target='_BLANK'><img src='$status_img' alt='La Academia Twitter' style='width:30px height:30px;' /></a>
</div><!-- tweet-img -->
<div class='tweet-text'>
<p class='tweet-p'>$description</p>
<p class='tweet-time'>$status_time . <a href='http://twitter.com/?status=@$user_id%20&in_reply_to_status_id=$status_id&in_reply_to=$user_id' target='_BLANK' class='tweet-reply'>Reply</a></p>
</div><!-- tweet-text -->
<div class='cleaner'></div>
</div><!-- tweet-wrapper -->
";

?>

Thanks for any help.
