MyHotel is a powerful on-line reservation and booking system. The script is written in PHP/MySQL and it is the ultimate solution for small to medium sized hotels, studios and appartments.

Visitors of the site will be able to search rooms on availability through the online booking and reservation system. They can also check room inventory and book reservations in a real-time environment.

Among many other features, administrators can manage bookings in the back-end system and view various reports.

Basic Authentication  was used to send user credentials through the header of HTTP request. That made it easy to use, but insecure. OAuth is now the preferred method of Twitter as a method of authentication. From August 2010 Basic Auth will be turned off from the API, causing that you current API (based on Basic Auth) will stop working soon (if you are not already receiving the Basic authentication is not supported error message).

So in order to keep publishing our Twitter messages on our website, we have to implement the OAuth method and we have to implement a form of caching to overcome that messages are not published due to the requests per hour limit.

After reading this simple turtorial and downloading the available examples, you will be able to publish your messages again within 15 minutes. The turtorial and example files are based on using a PHP environment.
