I'm using the FB API and it's working fine. I can post a photo just fine, and I can post to the users wall with me/feed but I need the post to include a link to another FB page. I learned yesterday that you can't post a link within a wall post - ie the users feed, so I'm trying to post a like, but not having any luck.

View 4 RepliesI have a facebook application where the user choose 4 of his friends and then it creates a video (swf) with the pictures of your friends in it (loaded via xml). So I need to share this video on the user timeline. Everything works fine but the video is not embedded in the post on his timeline, there is only a post with the link to the page in it.The weird thing is, if I post the url directly on my timeline, the video is embedded, but not if the same link is posted via the application.here is my code called by the share button in js :
function postToFeed() {
var obj = {
method: 'feed',[code].........
After I upload a photo on a desktop facebook application i need to store it's post id in a database. From the facebook ActionScript SDK documentation:pi() methodpublic static function api(method:String, callback:Function, params:* = null, requestMethod:String = GET):voidMakes a new request on the Facebook Graph API.Parameters [...]callback:Function — Method that will be called when this request is complete The handler must have the signature of callback(result:Object, fail:Object); On success, result will be the object data returned from Facebook. On fail, result will be null and fail will contain information about the error.
So I implemented my callback function as follows:
protected function handleUploadComplete(response:Object, fail:Object):void{
status = (response) ? 'Success' : 'Error';

I was just wondering if it is important to include POST as a method of sending loadVars to the php file. i was using POST before and i still ecountered some problems of receiving empty mails. Since i found an example which do not use POST or REQUEST method i dont have anymore prob. I just wanted to get another opinion about that as i wanna start using server side script with flash and i know that ill be using the POST method.

In the comments of this question, users have commented that it's possible to insert a Flash applet into a Facebook wall post. I was under the impression this isn't possible without making a FB app.
I'm aware that FB will convert links to various media types - e.g. a link to a MP3 becomes automagically a SWF MP3 player, but the Flash applet used is chosen by FB's internal logic, not by the content of the post. Is it possible to embed a SWF applet of your own choosing?
As I haven't been able to find any documentation on this, has anyone else? Or, do you have some PoC code that does this?
I'm absolutely new to programming and just managed to learn the basics of ActionScript 3. Now, I would like to learn how to post on my Friends' Walls via the as3 SDK using the UI class (taken from a nice Tutorial):

I am trying to figure out why this is not working. I have a Flash .swf that is attempting to POST some variables to a .php file in the same location as my .swf. My facebook app is in FBML Canvas. Here is the function I am calling. The .php file is never receiving anything
public function sendData():void{

I am building a Flash site and I want to be able to allow the user to post dynamically produced information to their Facebook wall, but I can't find out any information within the Facebook developers documentation.
Its simple enough in Javascript/HTML:
<script type="text/javascript">
function callPublish(msg, attachment, action_link) {
FB.ensureInit(function () {

As you can see I don't want to create sessions or login or anything complicated, just post to info to their wall.

I would like to use Flash to send a ByteArray (of a PNG image) to a php file, in a facebook application. Is there a way to do this by sending the ByteArray as just one POST variable instead of as the entirety of the POST data?
There was a nearly identical question here: How can I send a ByteArray (from Flash) and some form data to php? but the problem is different; instead of smuggling other variables in other parts of the request, the image itself has to be sent as just a variable because Facebook commandeers the post data and puts in its own junk.
If not, can I send the image in some form other than a byteArray?
Someone have already done this? I have a solution in mind, but I don't tried yet. Before trying i'm wanna know if it's possible.
My solution is just posting a wall into an html page and getting the source of page in Flash and parsing it.
All I really need is to make a post to the Facebook wall of the user from flash movie.Been trying to find any decent tuts for Flash IDE but everything seems to be for Flex mainly.
View 2 RepliesAnyone know if you can connect, login, post an image to a Facebook account directly from inside of Flash? I grabbed the Facebook API for AS3 and have it installed, created an application definition on Facebook but am having no look connecting to it? I have seen some refereneces to it only working inside of Flex and am wondering it that's the case. I am looking to do a kiosk application where a camera image will be uploaded directly to the persons FB page.

View 3 RepliesSorry for bothering you with questions like these, but I've never worked with Flash before, so I've got no knowledge in as3.

I'm trying to link a button to a page like google, or a page on the flashsite. I just purchased Flash cs4, so that might be the reason why the tutorial codes doesn't work..
