Hi everyone!
So I have a site that’s totally built (using AS2, unfortunately) which reads an XML document of hand-selected Tweets and pulls in the person’s name, that particular tweet content, date, and any formats the links. However, the way that it’s done now, I’m hand-pasting the content into an XML document. Well, it’s a pain in the ***, prone to human error, and will take forever, seeing as I’m doing hundreds and hundreds of tweets.
It’s only now occurred to me that I might be able to create an XML doc which I can copy/paste the Tweet hard URLs into, and Flash can gather the content via the metadata that’s contained in each tweet’s header. However, it’s a bit beyond my capabilities, so I’d love some input from everyone in Kirupa.
I’m stuck using AS2, and it’s no use trying to use the Twitter API, as I want to hand-select the tweets, not run an entire feed, and I don’t particularly want to go through the trouble of getting approved from Twitter’s forum.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Best,
Chris
