I'm making an app on facebook and have chosen iframe instead of FBML. The problem i'm facing is linking to various other pages of the app. Suppose that I've hosted my app here http://fbapp.mysite.com and I want to link http://fbapp.mysite.com/page1, how should I do that inside the iframe? Linking directly to fbapp.mysite.com/page1 just r...

I'm developing a generator to create a C# API wrapper for Facebook's API. I'm just about finished with the basic coding, except that there doesn't seem to be any well-formed declaration of the method signatures of all the API methods. I can parse the schema for the element types to figure out what the names of all the methods are (they'...
I'm trying to get my Facebook Connect code to validate, but it won't. I think the problem is that their xmlns page isn't loading. I have the code: <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> But http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml isn't found. Does anyone have a cop...
After reading a book on LINQ I'm thinking about re-writing a mapper class that I wrote in c# to use LINQ. I'm wondering if anyone can give me a hand. Note: its a bit confusing, but the User object is the local user and user (lowercase) is the object generated from the Facebook XSD. Original Mapper public class FacebookMapper : IMappe...
What is the best way to keep the user logged in when something like "third-party" cookies are disabled. I currently have a Facebook connect app (in only PHP) that works great when I have that checked in Firefox, but redirects to my login page when it's unchecked. Even Facebook's own sample application (therunaround) has the same problem ...
I am using Facebooker with Rails to connect my application to Facebook. I can direct the user through the authorization process and through the process of granting offline access to my application. How do I actually go about accessing the information offline? Is there a way to request a session_key that does not expire that I can us...
My app was working fine with Rails 2.2 and Facebooker 1.0.13, but I keep getting a 406 error with Rails 2.3. I checked the mime type, canvas/iframe setting in Facebook, and the requests work fine outside of Facebook (i.e. I get the full app as long as I'm not accessing it within the Facebook iframe). Has something changed recently in the...
Is there a way of sending notification about new wordpress-based blog to facebook account? Or maybe a plugin for wordpress? Restriction is that user shouldn't be logged into facebook, just specify facebook credentials to the plugin. ...
Hi, I've been following Stuart's tutorial at http://www.madebymany.co.uk/tutorial-for-restful_authentication-on-rails-with-facebook-connect-in-15-minutes-00523 and have been having a problem: I get a NoMethodError in UsersController#link_user_accounts; Rails doesn’t seem to recognize “facebook_session”. I have facebooker installed an...

Am in the process of developing some app for Facebook using Django! I've started first by building the app in Django and its shaping up pretty well, now am wondering how can I make it a Facebook app. I would really appreciate real world example for Facebook apps made with Django. ...

When browsing through Facebook pages the header and fixed footer section remain visible between page loads AND the URL in the address bar changes accordingly. At least, that's the illusion I get. How does Facebook achieve that technically speaking? ...
I like the simplicity of the facebook status/notes/news feed CMS. Obviously short posts and long notes are not hard but I'm running into difficulty trying to come up with a way to mimic their "Attach a Link" feature. Does anyone know of a way (or a library) to use asp.net to take/build/create a screen capture of a remote site? I've tr...
I'm working on a widget targeted for Facebook, MySpace, and perhaps others, probably in flash. Has anyone seen a summary of technical limitations on the different sites? I'm being told that FB doesn't allow emebedded swfs to link out to external sites, and that MS doesn't allow JS. It's sounding a bit vague and sketchy, though. I can o...
Hi, I have followed this tutorial. I don't want him to be autologgedin if he has logged into facebook, only if he logged into my website. Is there a way to distinguise between the cookie/session if it is set at facebooks own site, or my own? Right now it returns a user if he just logged into facebook, even if he has never logged into my...
Only certain users can no longer receive notifications from my app. I was able to re-produce this with a test account but I dont know how and removing/adding the application doesn't seem to fix the problem. This application is only being used by 4-5 testers and the number of notifications being sent to any given user is very nominal and...
I have been looking into using facebook connect for a new web site I am building, however the facebook api seems to be a little flaky. Th code I have been using is basic, however the example application 'therunaround' suffers from similar issues. E.g. friends list does not always load, logged in fb user not always detected. Are these ...
