PHP - Problem With Sharing To Twitter
I'm running a site where people can post confessions, there's an option to share confession to twitter but it doesn't work properly.
When you click on twitter icon there is a window opening, you need to log in to twitter and then you have your tweet you want to share which looks like this:
Confessions.ie - Irish Anonymous Confessions Confession: I did it! http://www.confessio...e.php?page=view
problem is that url, "http://www.confessio...e.php?page=view" - it doesn't correspond to actual post, then when clicked it shows "-1" and that's it.
normal post url's would be something like this:
http://www.confessio...w&confession=18
http://www.confessio...w&confession=15
http://www.confessio...w&confession=12
Website is: confessions dot ie
and here's the code that I think contains error somewhe
<?php $confId = $_GET['confession']; $viewIp = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; // Get the Full Page URL $pageURL = (isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) ?

How to implement twitter like real-time sharing system? So that is like, if my friend(following person) write a message, it also appear on my wall(page). 1. Is it hard? 2. What language used for it? PHP? 3. Is there any source about it? Thanks. Im trying to make a php program that will grab all the user's tweets they have ever done.. I'm using curl to request the twitter page and scrape the html. It looks as though the maximum amount of tweets I can get is 20, which is the amount on the initial first page. There is some script that loads another 20 tweets once I scroll to the bottom of the page... Does anyone know how to make the page automatically load a certain amount so I can scrape more than the first 20 at once. during lesson time we're developing php systems and our topic is virtual storage like dropbox, google drive etc. My teacher has now set the task to enable the ability to share files within the server but also restrict access within the server folder. I'm being taught MySQL however I've read a lot about PDO being better and decided to use this method to try and get a higher grade for my project although I'm having difficulty understanding how to go about it what i want to achieve is:
creating file sharing capability (i.e. students can share group projects)
restricting users (only those working on a particular document can view it)
don't worry this is not for my own benefit I'm just trying to get a grade here, I mainly just want advice on what I need I've read quite a bit but unfortunately I'm more of a visual learner.
Sorry, but I forget how to do this, mostly because I don't do it often. To keep things simple lets say I have 3 classes: Main, A, B class Main{ public $classA, $classB; public $shared; public function init(){ // Do some stuff return $this; } } class A{ public function aMethod(){ $me = $this->shared; // Same value as from B::bMethod() // Do some stuff return $this; } } class B{ public function bMethod(){ $me = $this->shared; // Same value as from A::aMethod() // Do some stuff return $this; } } $main = new Main(); $main->classA->aMethod(); $main->classB->bMethod(); I really want to be able to call the main class, then tell it what subclass to use and be able to use $this->shared in any class and it will be the same. If changed in any class the other classes should see the change as well. Does that make sense? Hello. I want to make a simple website, where I can upload a zip file and download it from a URL with just HTTP GET request. When I download the file, the file will then be deleted on the server. Can't find any examples. Maybe, I've searched wrong. Has somebody some written project links or some tips for me how can I achieve this?
I'm looking for a secure way to share session data across two different domains (not subdomains) on the same server. I've looked at passing the session id through a GET var to the other domain. It works but it looks to open the possibility of session hijacking and I don't really like having the session id in the URL string. Any way to make this secure? The other option I'm looking at is using cURL to load a script on the other domain that sets a cookie with the session id. When the person loads the other domain, check for the cookie, get the session id, connect to session then delete the cookie. Can anyone see anything wrong with this? Thanks. Hi, I have some code which displays my blog post in a foreach loop, and I want to add some social sharing code(FB like button, share on Twitter etc.), but the problem is the way I have my code now, creates 3 instances of the sharing buttons, but if you like one post, all three are liked and any thing you do affects all of the blog post.

I have a twitter button. But I would like to have a form button's action to activate the "tweet/share" link. Why? Because I want to record in mySQL database the fact that someone has in fact clicked the link to tweet. How I was thinking about doing... But really have no idea is like so. <form action="tweet.php" method="POST"> <input type="button" name="tweet" value="ip address" /> </form> then in the tweet.php I would have php insert the gathered IP address (ive got this part working with a geocoder class) into the database as confirmation. Then the php code would execute the hyperlink / java which is this: <a href="http://twitter.com/share" class="twitter-share-button" data-url="http://mycontent.com" data-count="horizontal" data-via="person-to-tweet-at">Tweet</a><script type="text/javascript" src="http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script> Activating the link as if someone where to click the link, but automatically. Basically I am looking for a way to record who clicks the Twitter button. Any guidance on this topic would be much appreciated. By using twitter api, i'm trying to get latest trends. I need to take trends name and creation time of the list. Can you help me to obtain the values from the array? Thank you This code doesn't work. Code: [Select] <?php $jsonurl = 'http://api.twitter.com/1/trends/44418.json'; $json = file_get_contents($jsonurl,0,null,null); $json_output = json_decode($json); foreach ( $json_output->trends as $trend ) { echo "{$trend->name}\n"; } ?> Does anyone know how to cache Tweets as to not reach the API rate limit? I am using the Twitter-provided widget to display multiple profiles on a website, but the API hits the limit of 150 per hour. Is there any way to cache the Tweets and still use this widget? Or does anyone know of a good widget that caches, or simple code? If anyone knows, please explain in newbie terms. Thanks a lot! This topic has been moved to Third Party PHP Scripts. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=348183.0 Does anybody have any recommendations for PHP scripts to pull in a Twitter feed? I've tried several but each seem to just give me error messages! I basically just need a PHP alternative so that the tweets can be read by search engines. Thanks. Good day Campers!
Having spent the better part of my day trawling the internet for an answer I have gotten nowhere so have come to you lovely people for help.
I found a nice little tutorial on PHP gang that would allow me to update my twitter feed from my website using PHP and OAuth.
I set up my twitter app with no issues and generated the API keys. Set the App to 'read/write' permissions and then regenerated the keys
The app is marked to "Allow this application to be used to Sign in with Twitter"
The issue is that when I click the little button to sign in to twitter, the page redirects but displays the generic "Cannot connect to Twitter" error message that has been defined in the code. I do not get asked to "Allow" the script to connect to twitter like it seems to do in the demo.
The PHPGang solution has 4 bits of script so I'm wondering if it has something to do with this as I understand the Abrahams script has slightly more so I do wonder if something is missing. I'm not sure. One of the main problems I am facing is that I have never actually done this before so I don't know where I have gone wrong or what I am even looking for help wise......
I have the following scripts:

I am currently trying to use the 'GET users/show' command in the Twitter API, however it is not working.
Can anyone see where I am going wrong?
<?php include "library/twitteroauth.php"; ?> <?php $consumer = "key"; $consumersecret = "key"; $accesstoken = "key"; $accesstokensecret = "key"; $twitter = new TwitterOAuth($consumer, $consumersecret, $accesstoken, $accesstokensecret); $tweets = $twitter->get('https://api.twitter.com/1.1/users/lookup.json?screen_name=twitterapi,twitter'); ?> <html> <head> <meta charset ="UTF-8" /> <title>Twitter Search</title> </head> <body> <form action="" method="post"> <label>Search: <input type="text" name ="keyword"/> </form> <?php if ( isset($_POST['keyword'])){ $tweets = $twitter->get('https://api.twitter.com/1.1/users/lookup.json?screen_name='.$_POST['keyword']. ''); foreach($tweets as $tweet){ foreach ($tweet as $t){ echo ($t->text); } } } ?> </body> </html> Example is: https://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/kevinhart4real.xml I have all the relevant information I need that i'd like to go in the field, I just need to know how to dynamically create the file with the content and have it update at specific intervals. Any one have any ideas (with PHP) So far I have come up with this: Code: [Select] $link = mysql_connect('localhost','root',''); mysql_select_db('test',$link); $result = mysql_query('SELECT `nationid`,`ruler`,`nation`, `resource1`, `resource2`, `alliance` FROM `nation`'); $doc = new DomDocument('1.0'); $root = $doc->createElement('nationlist'); $root = $doc->appendChild($root); while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { $nation= $doc->createElement('nation'); $nation = $root->appendChild($nation); foreach($row as $fieldname => $fieldvalue) { $child = $doc->createElement($fieldname); $child = $car->appendChild($child); //add data to the new element $value = $doc->createTextNode($fieldvalue); $value = $child->appendChild($value); } } $doc->save("nations.xml"); Now that generates 1 .xml file with all the details returned from my query. (also don't bash me for using mysql, it's a quick test) What I would like to do is create a new file for each record in my table and have only the values in that recorded saved to its respective file. I have built a small database which use the Twitter API to extract data from the listed members XML files (http://twitter.com/users/show.xml?screen_name=username) and it works well, but since the database makes several calls everytime a page loads I get kicked out very quickly, even with a small memberbase. So I wonder what solution would help with this problem? I have considered dropping the XML data into the database and saving each XML file on the server, but I am not sure what solution would be best? i get a message saying i cannot be authorised - i have keys, tokens, passwords, users etc but do not know how to implement them or update this script. any help for a super novice would be great! Code: [Select] <html><head><title>Title</title> <?php if (!isset($_POST['submit'])) { // if page is not submitted to itself //echo the form } else { $username = $_POST["username"]; $password = $_POST["password"]; $image = $_POST["image"]; ////// ////// ////// If you are using file uploads from your form, use the following block ////// NOTE: this particular example code uses file uploads from the input form ////// ////// $filename = $_FILES["image"]['name']; $tmpfilename = $_FILES["image"]['tmp_name']; $fileparts = explode(".", $filename); /* get file extension */ $ext = $fileparts[count($fileparts) - 1]; $newfilename = substr($tmpfilename, 0, strlen($tmpfilename) - strlen($ext)) . "." .$ext; //echo $newfilename; /* * this next line creates a "corrected" file ending in .gif/.png/.jpg so * the post headers are correct when CURL makes the request */ copy($tmpfilename, $newfilename); ////// ////// ////// Else If you are using canned files local to your server, use the following block ////// NOTE: you MUST use full path to image! ////// // // /* windows, notice FORWARD SLASHES */ // $newfilename = "c:/www/path/to/image.jpg"; // // // /* *nix */ // $newfilename = "/www/path/to/image.jpg"; // // The twitter API address $url = 'http://twitter.com/account/update_profile_image.xml'; $curl_handle = curl_init(); curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_URL, "$url"); curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_POST, 1); curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Expect:')); curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 2); curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, array("image" => "@$newfilename")); curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "$username:$password"); $buffer = curl_exec($curl_handle); curl_close($curl_handle); echo $buffer; // if you want to delete the local temp image from uploading, uncomment this next line: // unlink($newfilename); } ?> </head> <body> <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF;?>"> Username:<input type="text" size="12" maxlength="12" name="username"><br /> Password:<input type="password" size="12" maxlength="36" name="password"><br /> <input type="file" name="image"> <input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit"><br /> </form><br /> </body> </html> This topic has been moved to Other Libraries and Frameworks. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=322255.0 |
