Loading a Twitter Tweet button dialog in Fancybox

I'm trying to open up a sexy fancybox dialog with the Twitter tweet button stuff iframe style.

(function () {

    // Fancybox Options for IFrame
    var fancybox_params = {
        'padding': 0,
        'autoScale': false,
        'transitionIn': 'none',
        'transitionOut': 'none',
        'width': 680,
        'height': 400,
        'type': 'iframe'
    };

    // Twitter
    var twitter_params = fancybox_params;
    twitter_params.title = 'Twitter';
    twitter_params.href = 'twitter.com/share?' +
        'url=https%3A%2F%2Fdev.twitter.com%2Fpages%2Ftweet-button';
    $('#social_twitter').fancybox(twitter_params);

});

And then a little...

<a id="social_twitter" href="javascript:void(0)">Twa-twa-twa-tweet me homes</a>

I just get a loading animation. Working with fancybox 2.0.6.

You should put "http://" at the start of external URL.

But the actual problem is I think, 

"twitter doesn't allow itself to be embedded via iframe."

from @andrew_ohlmann answer

So that means you are not able to do it.
