Sorry, but they don't all mean the same thing. Vivi, you say you are a native English speaker, but there are a few mistakes even in your short response.
"walking in the street": Walking directly on the street. Not used much. Imagine a policeman calling out to someone: "Stop walking in the street! A car will hit you!"
"walking on the street": Very similar to "walking in the street", the same really. Means literally you are walking on the street itself, not the sidewalk (pavement in British English).
"walking along the street": Not used much. But it is basically the same as "walking down the street." Maybe it's used more in British English.
"walking down the street": By far the most common of the four (at least in American English). This means you are walking on the sidewalk/pavement, parallel to a street. This is what people almost always do. This is the only phrase of the four here that you will need to use on a regular basis.

P.S. Just don't say you are a "streetwalker". This is a slang word for prostitute! http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/stree...

Moncriefisme's answer is very good! I'm going to add the difference between "walking up the street" and "walking down the street". Using "up" will usually mean either going up a hill, or North. "Down" is the opposite :) So if I say, "I'm going to walk down the street to the store", it means I'm going down a hill or South on the street. (I hope you understand =\ )

Tbh it depends on where you're from. From where I'm from, people always say thing like " oh I saw you walking on the street last night." That doesn't mean that they saw me literally walking on the street but I get what you mean.

Thanks a lot for so many nice comments!
場所によって、street の意味がだいぶ違うのですね! Interesting!
The way we were taught at school in Japan, 'street' meant the whole thing -car lanes and sidewalks, everything - very much like 'road'.
BTW, does the following make sense to you?
"Our cat Tama was found on the street a year ago when it was still a few weeks old by my son when he was on his way home."

Yes, that makes sense! A perfect use of "on the street"!
Is Tama male or female? People usually refer to their own pets as "he" or "she".

Tama is a she cat, so I should've said "when she was still a few weeks old".
Thank you so much!
