Adding to a twitter link

At the moment when you click on the twitter link it just shares the url of the page. I would like to add my twitter account to the end of the url. For example

www.mycompany.com @mycompany

How would i go about doing this please?

the code added to the page for the twitter share button will look like:

<div id="custom-tweet-button"> <a href="http://twitter.com/share?url=<?php echo urlencode('http://www.mycompany.com'); ?>" target="_blank" title="Tweet"></a> </div>

you can edit that code to add your twitter account to the end:

<div id="custom-tweet-button"> <a href="http://twitter.com/share?url=<?php echo urlencode('http://www.mycompany.com/@mycompany'); ?>" target="_blank" title="Tweet"></a> </div>

Thanks for the quick response but this doesnt give me the solution i was after. When adding @companyname to the end it adds it to the url and doesnt have a space between the @ tag and the url.

Ideally id like the tweet to be:

latest news *url* @companyname

but whenever spaces are added to the php echo the tweet it blank.

perhaps try:
<div id="custom-tweet-button"> <a href="http://twitter.com/share?url=<?php echo urlencode('http://www.mycompany.com/%20@mycompany'); ?>" target="_blank" title="Tweet"></a> </div>

Doesnt work sorry; it adds the %20 to the tweet :(

perhaps if you give your reasoning for wanting to add "@mycompany" to the tweet URL i could come up with something that works

so far you have only told me what you want to do, what is you want to accomplish by doing this? what is your desired end result.

Sorry for not being clear, ill try to explain.

On twitter id like "@companyname" to be added to the end so people can see who the message is originally from, view our twitter profile and then ultimately follow the company.

The social media toolkit is on every news story in our news section so it allows people to share a story that they find interesting.

Therefore just for the Twitter share button id like it, once clicked, to be:

"Title of the news story here {url to the news story} @companyname"

I hope this helps.

Heres an example of what im after:

At the bottom of the story (before the comments) are the share buttons. Not the ones to the left of the page!

If you click on the Twitter one it displays what i would like from my news stories.

will-libya-help-obama-in-2012

which is: Will Libya help Obama in 2012? - The Week: pBQPJk via @AddThis

I see, you want to add a user to associate the tweet to.

this is done using via attribute:
tweet-button

<a href="http://twitter.com/share?url=<?php echo urlencode('http://www.mycompany.com/'); ?>&via=mycompany" target="_blank" title="Tweet">
