"&rpp=1"; $twitterFeed = file_get_contents( $feed ); return = json_decode ( $twitterFeed ); }</code> You can also get the Twitter feed as a JSON object for PHP5+, which makes it waaaaay easier to parse, you can return it as an array:

function GetTwitterFeed()

All that replace stuff actually messes up in utf-8, breaking the text up badly and rendering it into unvalid, broken html. Therefore, this code is more simple and more correct: <?php $username = "your_url_name_at_twitter"; $feed = "http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=from:" . $username . "&rpp=1"; function parse_feed($feed) { $stepOne = explode("", $feed); $stepTwo = explode("", $stepOne[1]); $tweet = $stepTwo[0]; $tweet = htmlspecialchars_decode($tweet,ENT_QUOTES); return $tweet; } $twitterFeed = file_get_contents($feed); echo('"'.parse_feed($twitterFeed).'"'); ?> You should really use PHP functions when they do the right thing.
