Apparently Facebook Share doesn't pick up the title / description meta tags that are changed (via JavaScript) after the page load. It basically use the meta tags that are available upon load. This is a simple example. The link will change the title / description meta tags upon click. You can confirm that using Firebug. Click the f|Sha...
With the standard share at http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php one only needs to specify a URL. Title and thumbnail are automatically pulled from the web page (perhaps with the help of meta tags). With Facebook Connect (I am using the iPhone SDK), I need to supply everything explicitly (URL, title, caption, description, images, etc.). ...

I have followed every single piece of advice I have found to try to get this to work but all of it has been to no avail. Can someone tell me why my description/thumbnail doesn't show up? Thanks.

We have multiple videos on a single page. How can we add unique meta tags for image_src, video_src etc for each video on the page so that Facebook picks the right video and its image for preview which user intended to share? Is this possible? ...
I got asked this question today, and couldn't find any commentary on this behavior anywhere. let's say I have a Facebook app, with a URL of http://apps.facebook.com/my-app. let's say that app points to a canvas page of http://my-app.mydomain.com/ When I share the link to http://apps.facebook.com/my-app on my wall, FB automatically c...

We are using Facebook's sharer.php service to share pages on our site. Right now this works great, but we are now having difficult trying to find out how to offer users more than one thumbnail to pick from (the sharer.php page offers a UI for multiple images, so it must be possible somehow). We have this meta tag currently: <meta prop...
