PHP Auto Tweets

$twitter_username = 'your_twitter_username';
$twitter_pwd = 'your_twitter_password';
$msg = "Testing Tweet from PHP by http://www.webtechquery.com";
	if ($msg) {
		$twitter_url = 'http://www.twitter.com/statuses/update.xml';

		$curl = curl_init();
		curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, "$twitter_url");
		curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 2);
		curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
		curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
		curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "status=$msg");
		curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "$twitter_username:$twitter_pwd");

		$result = curl_exec($curl);
		$resultArray = curl_getinfo($curl);

		if ($resultArray['http_code'] == 200) {
			return true;
		} else {
			return false;
		}

		curl_close($curl);
	}

In the code, simply replace your_twitter_username and your_twitter_password with your twitter account’s username and password, and change the text of message Testing Tweet from PHP by http://www.webtechquery.com with your tweet message i.e. users comments, posts or anything else you want. After successful integration of this code with your website, you will be able to see your auto tweets on twitter.
