Dan, when I tried your code in Firefox it said "This method requires a POST" but you're using GET so maybe that's the problem. --------------------------------------------------- By the way, has anyone done any Twitter Streaming API work with WebDNA? Personally don't think it's going to work at all -- because my understanding is that WebDNA won't do a thing with the data it receives via tcpconnect until it the source server closes the connection. That's how tcpconnect knows when to stop receiving data, isn't it? I mean, doesn't WebDNA simply hold the connection open until the source server closes it? This is my theory in the absence of documentation explaining how tcpconnect works. Unfortunately streaming data never ends, which means the source server never closes the connection, and therefore I think this will prevent WebDNA from ever doing anything with the partially transmitted data. I'm afraid this limitation may become a negative for WebDNA now that so many websites are being tied into streaming data systems like Twitter and Facebook so easily with other apps. Nevertheless I'm still hoping someone has attempted to use WebDNA with Twitter's Streaming API and can report his/her success or failure? Or perhaps someone at WSC who knows how tcpconnect actually works and can tell me if my theory is correct? Sincerely, Ken Grome
