Usage

  1. Get JQuery. In these examples, we use Google's AJAX Libraries API.

  2. include jQuery and jquery.tweet.js files in your template's <head>.

     <script language="javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.4/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
     <script language="javascript" src="/tweet/jquery.tweet.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    
  3. Also in <head>, Initialize tweet! on page load with your Username and other options

     <script type='text/javascript'>
         jQuery(function($){
             $(".tweet").tweet({
                 join_text: "auto",
                 avatar_size: 32,
                 count: 3,
                 loading_text: "loading tweets..."
             });
         });
     </script>
    
  4. In <body>, include a placeholder for your tweets. They'll get loaded in via JSON. How fancy!

     <div class="tweet"></div>
    
  5. Style with our stylesheet in <head>, or modify as you like!

     <link href="jquery.tweet.css" media="all" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
