Answer 1

using Twitters @anywhere api, you can set an onTweet function that does something when someone tweets.

here is a 6-step tutorial, see number 4

A default tweetBox can be called after the element with the comments class with the following snippet.

twttr.anywhere(function(twitter) {
    twitter(".comments").tweetBox();
});

So if you want a custom label, content, and a callback when the tweet has been sent, use this code.

twitter(".comments").tweetBox({
    label: 'What do you think about this article?',
    defaultContent: '#nettuts ',
    onTweet: function(plain, html){
        // Actions when tweet is sent
    }
});

Answer 2

They've fixed this with the intents function:

twttr.events.bind('tweet', function(event) {
// Do something there
});

or for clicking

twttr.events.bind('click', function(event) {
var click_type = event.region;
});

HTML:

<a target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=itismytext&url=http://google.com"> twitter share</a>

JavaScript:

$(document).ready(function(){

    twttr.events.bind('tweet', function(event) {
        console.log(event);
        // OR
        alert(JSON.stringify(event));
    });

});
