Upload to specific Fan Page Album without user perms - facebook

Question

I'm trying to replicate the same functionality as someone else has already achieved on this page here:
http://www.facebook.com/PowerPhotoUploader?sk=app_152884604799537
am not bothered about the forced like fangate part, can do that no probs.
I need to achieve this without requesting any user perms the same way they have
I've got close, but not quite right yet.
Have created a test album on this page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Demo-Album-Upload/227979503931257?sk=app_153866511376478
The code I have is uploading my specified image, however it is ignoring the album id I input and instead, uploading to an album on my own profile.
Code so far is:
<?php
$app_id = "XXXXXXXXXXX";
$app_secret = "XXXXXXXXXXXX";
require 'facebook.php';
$facebook = new Facebook(array( 'appId' => $app_id, 'secret' => $app_secret, 'cookie' => true, 'fileUpload' => true,));
$signed_request = $facebook->getSignedRequest();
//print_r ($signed_request);
$page_id = $signed_request["page"]["id"];
//Upload To Page Album
$facebook->setFileUploadSupport(true);
$album_id ='59125';
$file_path ='image2.gif';
$args = array('message' => 'Photo Caption');
$args['image'] = '#' . realpath($file_path);
$data = $facebook->api('/'.$album_id.'/photos', 'post', $args);
print_r($data);
?>
Have already read through a lot of forum material, have set the filuploadsupport, set file upload to true, but most of the info I can find so far reuires perms & access token, however sample above has managed to achieve with neither - any thoughts?

Answer 1

Tony the trick here is that you only need one access token, not a new one for each user. The idea is that the user is not posting to the page, you are posting to the page, so you do not need an access token from the user. However since this is a secure call to Facebook you still need to provide an access token that has the ability to publish to the page.
The simplest route to get an access token that you can use would be to manually give the application the manage_pages and offline_access permissions for your account. Then just grab the access token for for your account and use it for all calls.
