processing + twitter --> applet
Jul 3rd, 2009, 2:44pm  
Hi,
i've a problem with integrating my project in a website.

My processing project collects tweets and shows them on screen.
It works fine as an application, but if i export it as an applet, it doesn't work.
At first I thougt it'S a problem with jTwitter, but it's the same with twitter4j.
I also tried to make everything with eclipse, but same problem here.
Then I deleted the "twitter request part" out of my code and it worked. So I think the problem is the communication with twitter, but i don't have a clue why it works as an application and not as an applet.

I'm not allowed to post a link to the code, so i've to cipher it: WorldWideWeb[dot]literatursinn[dot]at/feelings/
Hopefully you can read it. This is there site where the applet should be, with links to the code. Maybe it helps.


Is there anything special whith applets?
Is there anyone with a similar problem?
Can anyone help me?

Thanks johannes

Yes

Yes, that's a very common problem...

Yes.

The case is covered in Reference > Environment, under Applet Security Restrictions. You access a site different of the one serving your applet, Sun restricts this, you have to sign your applet to overcome that (to warn the user that the software he uses might send information elsewhere).
