Twitter displaying too many tweets...

[JackT06]

Hello,

I have been trying to add a new way of displaying my tweets on my website.. I have used the following code;

<div id="twitter_update_list">
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://twitter.com/javascripts/blogger.js">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/JackTracy06.json?callback=twitterCallback2&;count=1"> 
</script> 
</div>

Which clearys states only call back 1 tweet

However, i'm getting several tweets come back see attachment for proof. Any ideas why....?

Looks like you have a stray ; in there before count in the URL.

Hey,

I just took that out, and then it didn't display any tweets.

I found an example on this page, and the only difference is using an HTML entity for the ampersand (& ), which may be where your ; came from.

Ahh, thanks

Could you have a quick look at my site www.hampshiredoeyouthforum.uphero.com scroll the bottom and look where the twitter feed and see why it don't seem to be staying inside the box...?

I have got the following code now;
CSS;

#twitter_div {
	background-image: url('twitterBG.png');
	background-repeat: no-repeat;
	border-bottom-style: solid;
	border-bottom-width: 1px;
	border-bottom-color: #5AA5BC;
	font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	font-size: 0.9em;
	margin-top:10px;
	padding-top: 30px;
	padding-right: 5px;
	padding-left: 5px;
}
 
#twitter_div ul li {
	color: #0C93BA;
	border-bottom-style: solid;
	border-bottom-width: 1px;
	border-bottom-color: #A1E8F7;
}
 
#twitter_div ul li a {
	text-decoration: none;
	color: #DDA84E;
}
 
#twitter_div ul li a:hover {
	text-decoration: none;
	color: #D78E42;
}
 
#twitter_div p {
	text-align: right;
	padding-right: 6px;
	padding-bottom: 10px;
}

HTML;

<div id="twitter_div">
	<ul id="twitter_update_list">
		<li></li>
	</ul>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://twitter.com/javascripts/blogger.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/JackTracy06.json?callback=twitterCallback2&count=2"></script>

It's going outside of that box (which is just a background image so not an actual box), because you didn't set a width on #twitter_div. Give it about 340px and it will wrap within that background image.
