I have a problem with callback function using facebook feed dialog, it works ok when display param is default, but if I want to use display:'iframe' it does not fire at all. What could be the cause of this? Is this bug or proper behaviour? Is there any workaround?
Ok, I founde the answer....
When i'm using feed dialog with display param set to iframe and is set redirect_uri, feed dialog does not fire any callback. But it works fine if is set a default display value.
The workaround in case of display:iframe is very simple, we just don't use redirect_uri param and redirect user in callback function. But there is no info about this in official documentation

I want to go to the website https://console.mobra.in by htmlunit tool, but login input in the modal box, how to get username input element or login form?
Use the queryselector method in HTMLUNIT.
usernamebox = currentPage.querySelector("[placeholder='username or email address']");
passwordbox = currentPage.querySelector("[data-ng-model='user.password']");
To get the above CSS selector, you may install chrome extension 'CSS Selector' of using the selectorgadget.
If it works, please tick it as answer, or otherwise please leave a comment below.
I have a site with smart-urls that lets you build up a dynamic url based on some user interaction. I devised a button using sharer/sharer.php?u=someurl.
EDIT: ** SomeUrl is a shortened-url ( using bit.ly)
The thing is sometimes someurl gets ignored and the post links to some other url ( which is the one defined on the og:url of the site). This happens somehow randomly.
href = href.replace('|u|',shareHref).replace('|t|',t).replace('|140|',t.substring(0,130))
window.open(href,'t','toolbar=0,resizable=1,status=0,width=640,height=528');
Any thoughts?
So, I've finally switched to FB.ui dialogs. The docs say sharer.php works only with ?u parameter but I've found it impossible to fix the bug mentioned above. If you're struggling with sharer, consider using FB.ui is fairly easy to integrate.
I think there are a few similar questions that seem to suggest using app_data in the signed request (http://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/signed_request/) but I'm not sure if it will be possible to do what I am trying to achieve with it as I've never used it before.
If I have my Facebook 'Tab' Url as follows:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/PAGE_TITLE/PAGE_ID?sk=app_APP_ID
What I want to do is add an extra parameter on the end as follows:
&WT.mc_id=email-uk-8014
The reason for this is for tracking purposes and links will be sent out of the form
http://www.facebook.com/pages/PAGE_TITLE/PAGE_ID?sk=app_APP_ID&WT.mc_id=email-uk-8014
and the extra parameter will allow us to track the campaign id.
As you can see I have no way of knowing the value of the parameter beforehand as it depends on the link clicked by the user so is it possible to somehow get the value of the WT.mc_id parameter inside my iframe app?
app_data is the only parameter passed through other than the page ID and user's basic details (locale and if they do/don't like the page) - you'll need to use that for any sort of campaign tracking (or link elsewhere and redirect to the tab after capturing your analytics data)
you can pass get variables in facebook but only in canvas application
you just have to use $_REQUEST['xxx'] to retrieve the data.
you should not pass the param in href of facebook. Instead just make linking inside your app so that you can track the events. As you will be in iframe and having complete control you can do same on your own site.
I'm developing a WordPress plugin to show above or bottom the posts Facebook like and send buttons.
Unfortunately when is also activated a plugin for Facebook share button there is a Javascript error (FB.provide is not a function) and like and send buttons don't appear.
For example this happens in this page: http://www.pasqualepuzio.it/2011/04/plugin-facebook-like-and-send-button/
How can I solve this issue?
Thank you very much
I ´ve faced the same problem and it happens if you add the script twice on the site (http://connect.facebook.net/sv_SE/all.js)
I understood that part that we cant have all.js twice but I want to have Facebook Share Button and Facebook Like Button.
According to Docs, I need to include these two JS Files.
https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js
http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/connect.php/js/FB.Share
Now, If I include both Firebug will give me same error "FB.provide is not a function". If I remove either of them then Like or Share button wont work.
I can do iFrame version but I have HTML Encoding issues with iFrame Version. I am programmatic generating HTML Response.
Any idea, how to approach?
There is a workaround for this: instead of placing the javascript Fb.Share within the same page where you are loading the Javascript SDK, use an Iframe with the first and set it in the second.
I am not sure, I am using a pretty standard piece of code for facebook. It sends requests for people regarding my application. All of a sudden I am receiving this error:
serverfbml form action must be within
the application's connect url
Have you been having problems with using either one of these:
fb:serverFbml
fb:request-form
fb:req-choice
fb:multi-friend-selector
thank you!
I don't know if you managed to find a solution yet, but I will tell you what my solution is. The action attribute of your forms should NOT be relative URLs, that is you should give the full URL of the website where the application is hosted:
fb:editor action="http://www.mydomain.com/myapp/index.php?params=1" labelwidth="100"
Use the canvas URL under Facebook Integration section in your application's edit mode.
If your canvas URL looks like this:
http://www.example.com/myfacebookapp/
then, in server fbml form action, the URL MUST be in the same directory of your canvas, like this:
(using the example of
<fb:request-form action="http://www.example.com/myfacebookapp/somepage.html"
Also, if the whole contains blank spaces i.e.
http://www.example.com/myfacebookapp new/
consider eliminate that blanks, or use %20 instead of the blank when you specify the URL canvas on Facebook and when you use that URL in form
<fb:request-form action="http://www.example.com/myfacebookapp%20new/somepage.html"
I solved it finally.
Dont get messed up with all type of setting.
Simply go to your facebook app
click edit app button
now copy Canvas URL
and paste it under
<fb:request-form action="CANVAS URL HERE"
method="POST">
Well, it worked for me.!
Thanks to "tsegaye"
i had the same issue.. i used the canvas url in the summary page and it worked. You can try it out aswell
This is not the solution. If you do this, when user clicks "skip" on the dialog, he would be send to http://www.mydomain.com/myapp/index.php?params=1" instead of your application.
The solution is:
action="http://apps.facebook.com/myapp/" -> this "/" at the end would help.
It could be also any other action inside your app for example:
action="http://apps.facebook.com/myapp/sendRequest"
This solution works if you use friend selectors outside the scope of sending requests. For eg. Selecting friends to collaborate with in your app.
Not an answer but this is what helped me. I have a iframe based application and i tried to use the facebook iframe based friend invite code. In my action, i put the app.facebook.com/myapp/ url which whould be give me this fbml error
serverfbml form action must be within the application's connect url
Also when i pressed "skip" it would take me to a 404 error. The solution was to use the canvas url under facebook integration, as suggested by #tsegaye
