How to change the facebook ui feed size? - facebook

I have included share button in my website. The share button works fine in web browsers.
But when access through mobile, after clicking the share button, the share popup size is same as web browser. So it is not getting displayed properly.
Can anyone please suggest, how to alter the height and width of the feed popup?
Thanks.

Afaik you cannot change the appearance and size of the popups made with FB.ui. You could try opening your own popup:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/reference/feed-dialog/v2.0
See "URL Redirection".
One other possibility is to use the "sharer.php", it is even easier to handle because you only need to add the URL as parameter and it will automatically get the Open Graph data from that URL.

Firefox addon SDK - Sidebar or panel with embedded browser

I want to develop a firefox addon sdk to show a sidebar or a panel that contains an embedded browser with a navigation bar.
I have constraint too : Since the page shown in the embedded browser, I want to be able to inspect the dom, to hightlight some specific text and also to be able to select text from and send it to a specific input in sidebar with right menu.
Is there some examples or ideas how can I do this?
P.S : I'm sorry for my bad English ;)
Use sidebar module, create HTML file with a fixed textarea top:0, left:0, width: 100%. Create an iframe that takes up the rest of the sidebar. User enters text into the textarea, then listen for enter keystroke, use regex to see if it's a URL, and set iframe source to the URL if it's a URL or to a Google search if not.
Loading a whole browser into the sidebar seems like overkill, but if you really want to, try to load chrome://browser/content/browser.xul into the sidebar.

Send button not displaying in my web page

I tried with HTML5 as well as XFBML version also but send button not appearing on my webpage.
I used the code from https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/send/ for http://www.rakthadanam.com. On the developers.facebook.com it is showing properly but on my site it's not displaying.
Well, that´s because you cut it from the Social Plugin. There is just no space for it right next to the like button, you are going to have to make it bigger.
Also, there is "send=false" in the source code, so of course there is no send button at all.

How detect if user view app in facebook frame or not?

I have disable scroll in my app, so there is only scroll from facebook - it looks cute and I like it, but if came to my app directly on site, there is also no scroll bar. I tried to detect if user load page with url http://mysite.com or http://apps.facebook.com/myapps, in both ways I get the same direct address link, so I cant detect if user view my app via facebook and I need to hide scrollbar or view it on site and I need to show scrollbar. So is there a way to detect how user view my app?
What server side language are you using? If you are inside the facebook iframe, your page will be requested with a post variable set called signed_request. You can check if that has been set in your code, if it has you know you are inside the facebook iframe, if it's not then you are on your site. From here you could either conditionally change your css to allow the content to overflow properly and get scrollbars, or redirect them into the facebook app.

Ways of showing a webpage in iPhone?

I have a UIwebview which loads up a page ,first the links in the page were opening up on the same page, that made it look ugly, then I found a function which made the link open up in the phone's safari browser.That was nice but actually I want to show the links in a pop up view which can simply be closed. I have seen the google map popping up and showing the map. I want to do the same same thing with the links on the page they should open up as pop up and should not open up in safari and neither in the same UIWebview.
What could be the possible way to implement this.
Another inspiration is phonegap's ChildBrowser which opens the link as a popup.
I want to implement the same in native.
Any help and suggestions will be appreciated.
You have to use UIWebview to show the web content for the link. just resize it by using frame property as per your requirement because it's inherited by UIView.

Showing different content in Facebook iframe WITHOUT using "Like"

OK, this is not the question you might think. We need to set up a tab on a Facebook page & of course that now means iframes, not FBML.
The initial content displayed will be a graphic containing a question. The answer, in the shape of another graphic, is to be revealed by clicking on the first image. The initial image must be replaced by the second (which shows the answer).
"Like" does not enter in to this: the function is the same whether the user "likes" the page or not. It's just "click this image to display the answer".
As iframe newbs, this is causing us a bit of a headache - so can anyone help ?
Thanks.
The iframes in Facebook now function just like a normal web page. Just capture the click event on the initial image using javascript (and/or jQuery) and display replace it with the new imagery.
