set user status at facebook

I have a game application released at facebook platform, i need to set the user status who played the game so that after the user playing the game and scoring high score i need to set the status of the user to be showed in the home page of the user so his/her friends can share with him/her the action of playing the game and can challenge each others.

I am using Iframe application using Asp.Net and C# language, i have used the facebook service and called the following code:

_fbService.users.setStatus("Message");

and it reports an error saying the following:

Updating status requires the extended permission status_update

so how can i solve this problem please? i need to do like other games that after playing the game and achieving a noticable action in the game to be showed at the status of the user in the home page and be shared with his friends.

Thanks in advance and hope that the question is clear

+3 A:

You have to request an extended permission from the user in order to make use of a whole bunch of FB functionality - including setting the user status.

It's pretty easy to do, info can be found here:

In your javascript... something like:Facebook.showPermissionDialog('status_update',ondone);function ondone(){ document.location("Invite.aspx")}This would ask the user for status update permissions, then when they return from the dialogue, will redirect them to an invite page...Good luck fella
