Q: 

Tagging a user in a wall post/update using Facebook API

I'm using stream.publish to write to the user's wall and attempted to get "@ tagging" to work but with no avail.

If the user's name is Fred and his uid is 1234, I tried sending over "@Fred", "@1234", "@[1234]", "@[Fred]", etc. and couldn't get it to work. The raw string would display every time.

Can someone confirm if this is possible with the API or not? Thanks!
