Chrome Facebook Connect Window Resize

I am experiencing a weird issue in Google Chrome for Mac OS X (10.6).

I am using the JS Facebook Connect library and FB.Connect.streamPublish to share a story on a users profile. If the user is already logged in to Facebook prior to coming to the share page on my site, there's no problem - the window opens as an absolutely positioned div above the rest of my site. If the user is not logged in, though, a pop-up window opens that asks the user to log in.

This works perfectly in Firefox, but when using Chrome, when the Facebook login window opens, it starts gradually resizing itself until it becomes a narrow column - when manually resizing the window, it gradually reverts back to the narrow column. I googled this problem and found that some users are experiencing the same issue, but I could not find a solution.

Does anybody know anything about this?

UPDATE: I filed a bug report at the Facebook Platform Bugzilla - Bug #9159

Perhaps you should report this issue to the Facebook Developer Bugzilla.

I'm experiencing the same issue in Chrome on 3 different windows machines (XP / VISTA / 7). I assume the Facebook javascript for window sizing messes up because of an unexpected return value in the script.

Nope... The folks at Facebook seem to be ignoring their users and developers...
