Question

Errors when testing facebook application.

Answer 1

A:

FBML does not allow certain tags. These tags include <noscript>, <embed>, and <body>. That's why you're seeing these errors. You also appear to have some invalid markup that is causing some of these errors as well.

You have two options:

Remove these elements from your page. (The body tag is not necessary. Noscript is not necessary because users must have js enabled to use facebook. Embed can probably be replaced with fb:swf assuming that it is used for flash content.)
Run your application as an iFrame application instead (The toggle for this is on the developer settings page).

I recommend looking into the benefits and drawbacks of #2 before taking that route. Specifically, you will need to use XFBML if you wish to use FBML features, and you may need to workaround the Safari browser's cookie restrictions.

Your sample PHP code should work fine, so for that example there is probably a different problem occurring there.

Good luck!
