I created a Facebook "Tab App" that appears to be working in Chrome, Safari and FireFox but doesn't seem to load at all in IE8 (and older).
Here is the link to the tab on Facebook:

I also uploaded the code to a page outside of Facebook, and IE8 seems to load that page fine (you can also view the source code on this page):

Any ideas what the issue could be?

I'm currently experiencing an issue with links in an iframe. This links have multiple redirects (ads links).
The iframe is usually placed in a domain that is different from mine. When a user with an iphone (using safari) lands on this page and clicks one of the link I provide, it's redirected to a blank page.
This does not happen with chrome or firefox, but only with safari and only with iphones. With chrome and firefox the user is redirected to the correct page.
Moreover, and this is really weird, if on safari I press the link and do one of the following options, "Open" or "Open in a new tab", the redirect works perfectly.
There is some policy in safari that blocks the redirects? both sites are under ssl?
This is how I render links:
Thank you very much!
I have a Facebook like button on a website, it links to their Facebook page.

If you copy and paste that into Chrome it works perfectly.
In Firefox and Safari no item shows up.
I tried making the like button in Firefox and realize when the link is a facebook link the item doesn't show. Anyone know why this would be and a possible solution?
Works fine on my safari (6.0.2)
I want to be able to display my application in an iframe via a page tab on someone's profile, I have a local version of my application running with SSL (although it is a self assigned certificate), on https://localhost:443.
When I set this url as the canvas url for the canvas page it works correctly, but as a page tab nothing is displayed. In fact upon inspecting the html where I believe the iframe should be there isn't even an iframe, and no actual request is being made to my application.
Does facebook make the request to the page tab url from their servers or something?? (as this would obviously mean you couldn't use a local version of your app). Or does it something to do with the markup my app is returning, as people on the net seem to be saying that you cannot return <html>, <body> or <head> tags to a page tab application.
Help. Please.
Yes this is possible by configuring "Page Tab URL" and "Secure Page Tab URL" in the application settings.
Once application is visited (both canvas and page tab) Facebook issuing POST request to your app, but it's still made by the User's browser.
Update:
This seems like a bug on Facebook end, if you'll visit your application page tab while browsing Facebook over HTTPS it'll work, but if you not using "Secure Facebook" the canvas isn't even requested. As a solution for development you can use Facebook over HTTPS or use HTTP version as "Page Tab URL".
I'm having a problem with a Facebook application that I'm doing. The idea of my work is to make an iframe application that registers and login automatically into a mediawiki webpage that I have on the same server.
All that work is already done, but right now when I'm logged in to mediawiki after entering the app, when I click on create, or edit that article, it's not working. After clicking the link the web stays static, like no clicks were done.
In fact, the problem occurs with all Special: pages from mediawiki, all the others links works properly.
In chrome when I Ctrl+click and open in a new tab, everything works fine, but for my app requested I needed to stay into the iFrame.
The iframe loads properly on the page tab in chrome on my computer (I'm admin of the page), but when I try to view from another FB account on same computer via Safari or Firefox, no luck.
Also, the iframe doesn't load for others.
I had the same problem. The iframe was not loading in Safari but it was loading in Firefox. And it was also loading correctly in Safari on another computer.
After about 3 hours of searching, trying and investigating, I finally found the solution.
It seemed to be a (simple) caching problem.
What I did is I cleared all website data of Safari.
Then it worked.
