Twitter Search Feed URL length issues
I have a blidget that has a twitter search feed - here is the URL http://search.twitter.com/search?q=fr...
This works perfectly
I have another blidget with three tabs, I'm trying to add the same twitter feed to a fourth tab, I select Twitter/Search but when I put the same search terms in it gets cutoff as if there is a URL length limit - therefore, it doesn't work

Inappropriate?Hi there,
I'd love to help, but I'll need a link to your widget on Widgetbox in order to take a look.

Inappropriate?OK, I see it. We'll look into increasing the character limit on that field. In the meantime, the current limit is only supported. Feel free to check back in about a week and we should be able to have that changed for you.
Current Limit: 50
New Limit: 200

Sure thing. Although, to clarify, the 50 character limit is the search query, not the extra URL stuff. Your search query is just quite a bit longer than most we've seen so far. -
Inappropriate?And just to clarify, that search string works in the basic twitter widget so my expectation as a user would be that it would work as a tab as well.
My entire search URL is 100 characters. If you're trying to get a good picture of a topic search strings need to be fairly complex.
