My client has asked if I can show his twitter feed in the sidebar of a site I am developing. Has anyone got a simple bit of HTML code I can insert in to the sidebar that will extract the last x number of tweets from a specific user?

Do not need to post from the site, just to show latest tweets for a specific user.

Twitter offers various widgets for displaying your tweets.

Or you could make your own, like I did with this example page :D

You could also try this Rempy Sharp’s Twitter JS code I like the ability to skin the twitter stream with that.

That looks like what I need although I need to apply it to an .ASP page and I think this is written in PHP?

  • which one? The official widget requires just a couple of JS files to run which will be provided once you've generated and customized the widget for your own use. The one I wrote uses Yahoo Pipes to pull in the remote data and jQuery to process/display it so a server-side app is not required — danwellman 10 months ago

Took a look at the Twitter widget and that does the job nicely.
