    That looks like it's in an echo command so you may need to escape the quotes. Try something like this:
    <a href=\"http://twitter.com/". $tweet->screen_name ."\" target=\"_blank\">

    In PHP the . (dot) is a concatenator meaning it joins strings of text. So I'd guess they shouldn't be in this href. Maybe try the following:
    <a href=\" $tweet->permalink() \" class=\"permalink\">
    Code (markup):
    I'm not a PHP expert so I might be wrong :eek:

    Oh sorry, I didn't know you needed target=_blank in there as well :p
    <a href=\" $tweet->permalink() \" class=\"permalink\" target=\"_blank\">
    Code (markup):
    Hope that works :)
