This is a simple PHP script to interact with the Twitter API and update the user’s status. Unlike most other samples, it does not use cURL or any other dependency.
$msg = 'Your message here';
$out="POST http://twitter.com/statuses/update.json HTTP/1.1\r\n"
."Host: twitter.com\r\n"
."Authorization: Basic ".base64_encode ('username:password')."\r\n"
."Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n"
."Content-length: ".strlen ("status=$msg")."\r\n"
."Connection: Close\r\n\r\n"
."status=$msg";
$fp = fsockopen ('twitter.com', 80);
fwrite ($fp, $out);
fclose ($fp);
Note that this script does not store or process the response.
