The problem I face now is that the script provided by them don't work.
I'm getting an error in Firefox:
uncaught exception: Permission denied to call method XMLHttpRequest.open
To update you guys about what the script does, it's a mini app to update your status in Twitter.
Here's my code which does not work both in Firefox and IE:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Twitter Submitter</title>
<script>
var updateURL="http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml";
function postMe() {
username=document.twitterform.uname.value;
password=document.twitterform.passwd.value;
text=document.twitterform.updatetext.value;
if(text.length == 0) {
alert("No text!");
return false;
}
if(text.length >= 130) {
alert("Too long!");
return false;
}
var content = "source=twitAIR&status=" + encodeURIComponent(text);
showStatus("Posting message");
submitUpdate(updateURL,content,function (istimeout){
if( xml && (xml.readyState == 4 || istimeout == "timeout") ) {
showStatus("Message Posted");
}
});
}
function showStatus(message) {
document.getElementById('status').innerHTML = message;
}
function submitUpdate(uri,message,callback){
alert("In Post");
xml = new XMLHttpRequest();
xml.open("POST",uri,true,username,password);
xml.setRequestHeader("If-Modified-Since","Sat, 1 Jan 2000 00:00:00 GMT");
xml.setRequestHeader("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
xml.onreadystatechange = callback;
xml.send(message);
}
</script>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#000000">
<div align="center" style="background-color:#000000;color:#FFFFFF;font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:12px;padding:20px;">
<p><strong>Ready to Post!!</strong></p>
<div id="status">
</div>
<p>What are you doing?</p>
<form name="twitterform">
<label>
<textarea name="updatetext" id="message" cols="45" rows="5"></textarea>
</label>
<p>Username:
<label>
<input type="text" name="uname" id="uname" />
</label>
</p>
<p>Password:
<label>
<input type="password" name="passwd" id="pword" />
</label>
</p>
<p>
<label>
<input type="button" onclick="postMe();" value="Twit!" />
</label>
</p>
</form>
</div>
</body>
</html>
However, after changing a line, I managed to make it work in IE:
xml = window.XMLHttpRequest ? new XMLHttpRequest() : new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP.3.0")
Attached is the HTML file if anyone needs it.
Note: Although it works in IE, packaging it as an AIR app did not work as well.
