Hi Can someone point me to a simple example of posting to a user's facebook pages using a query string? ie I'm not using facebook connect.

A: 

The simplest way to be able to post to a user's facebook page would be to use Facebook's Share Button, its super simple to use by just passing the current url ( if your using something like SWFAddress then you could even deeplink them to your applications current section) by replacing the URL params to point u=[your website] & the t=[message to share].

Also to include a picture next to the shared message you will need to look in to Facebooks's Open Graph, with a focus on making sure you include the og:image meta property on the base url of your site, which will then show up next to your share content that you posted from flash.

 <meta property="og:image" content="http://www.yourwebsite.com/squareimage.jpg"&gt;
