Problems connecting to TweetDeck with the API

Some of the users are unable to connect to TweetDeck with the API. It appears that the problem comes from a non-enabled function on the servers - apache_request_headers() You need to have the function enabled in order to use the API to connect to TweetDeck. Here is a simple test method to verify whether the function is enabled on your server or no:

if( !function_exists('apache_request_headers') ) {

echo 'bad';

}else echo 'good';

If the result is "bad" then your server doesn't support apache_request_headers(), if it is "good" you should be able to connect to TweetDeck.

This will be changed in Sharetronix 1.5.1.

MarcosBL Tried this fix... it provides same funcionality, but doesn't seem to work either...

if (!function_exists('apache_request_headers')) {
function apache_request_headers() {
$headers = array();
foreach ($_SERVER as $k => $v)
{
if (substr($k, 0, 5) == "HTTP_")
{
$k = str_replace('_', ' ', substr($k, 5));
$k = str_replace(' ', '-', ucwords(strtolower($k)));
$headers[$k] = $v;
}
}
return $headers;
}
}

Tod My problems are un-related. Everytime someone go to the mobile site /m it creates a empty m directory. Then the next time you try and go on mobile, it just goes to this empty directory. Any help would be great. Thanks

Radu Balanescu Wats the source code for the htacces file in order to enable the apache_request_headers and make tweetdeck work with sharetronix?
