url shorten function fails on Android #11

Unfortunately the URL shorten function fails on Android but works perfectly on IOS. The only thing it returns is "false." I added a Ti.API.info on the ResponseText which basically says you need to submit a valid URL <a href= >

It is my opinion that something is mangling the url that is being passed to twe.ly on android. Most likely the issue is in HTTPClient object from Titanium.

Thanks,

John

make sure autoEncodeUrl is set to false for android (XHR.autoEncodeUrl = false;)

I guess the problem was a missing Ti.Network.encodeURIComponent() over the url. In the pull request https://github.com/jpurcell/birdhouse/pull/27, I fixed this bug and added other shortener API's like goog.le and bitly. As far as I now, twe.ly is down.
