I am developing facebook application.I want to add iframe to my facebook page.I don't have any idea ,how to do it.I know we can not create a page using graph api or any api in facebook.
All the information you need is here - found by a quick google search:
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/fbml/iframe/
You'll need your own hosting server which have HTTPS, and create your page with the language that they support and place the link points directly to the folder to facebook app setting. make sure your width does not go beyonds 520px for facebook custom tab page. if apps u can go up to 760px.
Hope that helps

I'm basically trying to put all the functionality of this website: http://greenthumbweather.com/
into Facebook via the "website" platform.
I've started the app process in facebook and I entered the URL as website platform (attached image).
However, when I go to preview the "app", I just get a link to my website in the top right (attached image).
Do I have to recreate the entire functionality of the website within Facebook? Or can I just port the functionality into a Facebook app? I really would like users to be able to visit the website within Facebook, where it would grab their location information and customize my website based on their latitude/longitude.
Thanks for any help!
You can just port your website to facebook app but i think that depend on your desired output. Your website can also be ported to a canvas app.
On my client's Fanpage, a third party app is running for a contest. How can I make this FB contest page available on mobile? I read the answer here:
http://facebook.stackoverflow.com/a/10833366/461119

Facebook SDK : Page Tab App returns not found in mobile Facebook App
I do not understand it clearly.
Is the query parameter ?ref-ts which we have to add at the end of URL?
What does it mean by "It helps in the browser but not the app itself."?
Will it help to see the App on mobile and click on it to go to the contest page on FB?
Also, I found this answer:
Works as advertised! Thank you. I was getting 404, but simply adding
ref=ts in my redirect URLs (I force users to use my app as a page tab)
fixed it! – Guillaume Boudreau
under the first link above but what is forcing users to use app as a page tab?
How can I set App as a page tab?
little bit confused.
I searched the web vigorously but did not get any clear explanation.
My observations about this issue:
Seems like it's an ANDROID issue, Work OK on iPhone's
Work with the link redirection services like Bit.ly (where the bit.ly link included the ref=ts)
I sent an email to Facebook for ANDROID developers.
Hi,
my iPhone's user colleagues can open links to page tab app with ref=ts
parameters but on Android we can't ;-(
The only way we've been able to do it is when the link to the app is
under a bit.ly redirection link
The problem is only when the links are open through the Facebook App.
Thanks
Let us know

You can access to your app using the next link https://apps.facebook.com/YOUR-APP-ID
In this way, you can access from a desktop or a mobile with no problem.
I need to link the user's twitter and facebook profiles in a website profile while the website is loaded inside other websites' through iframe.
Is it possible to do that using a modal div inside that iframe? I'm quite in trouble thinking about the return url and page reload.
Have some example?
btw i'm using php but think it's not important now
Thanks,
A.
You can do what ever you want in your page even when it resides in an iframe. What you can do in it (visually) is only limited by the dimensions of the iframe (unless the hosting page has some kind of layer on top of your iframe).
I can't speak of the twitter way of doing things (you can always check their documentation) but with facebook it's pretty easy to integrate into the graph using the api.
You need to have a facebook app, and then in your page (even if it's in an iframe) you can use the javascript sdk to authenticate the user and then use the graph as you need (and have permissions to).
I am trying to upload samples of facebook fanpages on my page. I used to work with Static FBML in the past but the pages I want to upload have javascript etc so I think that they will have to be uploaded somewhere else. I am out of ideas where do professional fanpage developers upload their fanpages. I will be very thankful if you can guide me. Thanks
if you're talking about pages that you can add to a fan page it used to be fbml no they use iframes the source goes in any domain of your choice, so if you have hosting somewhere just upload your page there and copy/paste url when creating your app. Hope this is what you are looking for.
Check this out for more info.
I think what you are trying to do is add a custom tab to your Facebook Fan Page like I did here on mine: www.facebook.com/daterraweb
To get it done, you need to create a page and as an admin you can create a custom page tab to host it.
Basically you just need to create a document like you would for a webpage and host it at your hosting of choice and then go to: https://developers.facebook.com/apps
On the Developers apps you can create a New App each can be configured to work as a tab on the page.
I hope this helps. Good lucky.

I am developing a Facebook page and a website which is going to serve its contents to the Facebook page. I am using Zend Framework.
In order to use only one controller both for the website and the Facebook page, I would like to find some way to determine if the current user is navigating from Facebook or from the website. Thus, to hide some data if from Facebook and show other if from website.
Which is the best way to do this?
$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
If that doesn't answer your question I don't understand what you mean with "navigation from".
