I've come up with a flash game and wish to deploy it on facebook. Problem is, I am not sure where to start!
I've done some research and found out something about needing an external server to host my flash application but I'm still pretty much lost.
So can anyone tell me what are the basic steps to deploying my flash application to facebook?
I 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].........
I am using flex sdk to develope my application, now I want to deploy it into tomcat server with blazeDS how to do it with out the eclipse plugin?
View 1 RepliesI am having an issue with my Adobe AIR application for android devices. When running the SWF file on the PC the application runs perfectly, I have also tested this in adobe Device Central and it works as expected. When I install this application to my android device, a HTC Desire HD, I get a screen with 5 dots, seems like a loading screen.I created the application using the following command
adt -package -target apk-debug -storetype pkcs12 -keystore game.p12 game.apk game-app.xml game.swf icon36.png icon48.png icon72.png
This is the contents of my xml file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/2.5">
<id>com.example.game</id>

I have two applications: a client in flex and a server in Java. When I deploying the application inside flex builder with the tomcat server inside as well, everything works fine. But now I'm trying to deploy in apache tomcat outside the flex/eclipse builder and I have a problem.I think the problem is with relative/absolute paths but I do not know how to resolve it.In my Java application I have to access a database and a get a file from it. I use a properties to set a path where I want to download that files like this:pacs.ruta=C:\resources\And then I need to access to that file so in use this code:fin = new FileInputStream(pacsRuta+""+f.getName());where f.getName() gives me the name of the file so I get the path of the file with the path I set in pacs.ruta and the files name.
I do not know why it does not work. I tried to put pacs.ruta=/resources/to associate with a folder in my application but It does not work.Could someone give me an advice? Do you think it is the problem? Because the whole application works fine deploying in a tomcat server outside the flex/eclipse builder but when this code is called the application does not work.

But what is the trick to enable flash fullscreen in facebook application ?
I need to embed a flash application(that will access FB API from within) in Facebook Canvas page.If I use , some FB related details(like session key) will be automatically passed to the flash. But since, FBML is going to be deprecated, I want to use iFrame. Is there any way to pass those variable automatically or do I have to retrieve them in PHP and pass it to flash through loadvars?Also, if I have to do it manually, is there any documentation for the php sdk 2.1 ? (already searched about it a lot, and I think there is no doc nor tutorial for 2.1)

View 1 RepliesI'm building an AIR desktop app with facebook support using Adobe Flash builder. So far it's working alright, except for one detail, once a user logs in, that session stays open, even if the logout button is pressed. My logout code look like so:
protected function logout():void {
FacebookDesktop.logout(handleLogout, APP_ORIGIN);
}
I set APP_ORIGIN to "[URL]". I checked Adobe's documentation and they say: appOrigin:String (default = null) ” (Optional) The site url specified for your app. Required for clearing html window cookie. But I don't know what that means, what is the 'site url specified by my app'? Where do I get it? Sorry if this is a noob question.
How to develop new facebook application (login , add photos ) using the api of flex
View 1 RepliesI have a small problem with a the Facebook sharer.php! I'm developing a small flash application (kind of slideshow) that will be embed into different website. In the application there is a button that send a request to Facebook to share a link. So based on the Sharer.php doc, I send a request like this :
[Code]....
The facebook page pops out, I see the correct title for 2 seconds and then facebook replace it with the title of the current page. Is there a way of preventing Facebook of rewriting the title that I chose? I know that I can use this in the head of my HTML document :

By far the weirdest thing I've ever seen. On some machines (!) IE (!!) attempts to load an SWF file via HEAD request instead of GET. This happens only when the page is running in Facebook IFRAME application - when running solo works fine. Naturally, on FF and Chrome everything works just fine. The SWF is embedded using jSWFObject. There's no visible common feature to the machines which experience this problem - laptops, desktops, XP, Vista, 7.

View 1 RepliesI'm currently building an application using the Adobe Facebook API and I've run into an issue where for the login method the Facebook login popup displays but when doing a Facebook share/post the popup is blocked.
This code works fine and displays me a Facebook login popup without question (Firefox):
var permissions:Array = ['publish_stream'];
Facebook.login( onFacebookLogin, { perms:permissions.join(',') } );
However, the following code running in the same application throws up a popup blocker (again Firefox):
Facebook.ui( "stream.publish", "popup", params );
Does anyone know of a work around this issue to make the share popup come up just like the login popup?

I'm making an air-application in flash professional using actionscript. I was wondering if any of you know how (or if it's even possible) to use facebook to log in to my application. I found some stuff on the web, but I only found stuff to HTML, not actionscript.
View 1 RepliesI would like to integrate facebook in my actionscript application. I am using facebook actionscript api available from URL...I would like to know if there is any way to creating custom login dialog rather than using the default facebook login dialog as i want the user to just sign in to facebook rather than exploring the other fields like "Sign up" and "Forgot password"I cant use the current api as websites use it for logging to facebook. It is open to sign ups exploring other languages.I would like to prevent the whole thing by customizing the login dialog. Does facebook provide something for that? Or can it be done it in any way?

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to duplicate the behaviour of the "Share on Facebook" button from Youtube. Basically, inside a Flex app I'll have a button and when I click it I want a popup that enables me to post something on the wall. While it is possible to make a call to javascript to open the pop-up I want to be able to set the images and the text of my posting. How I could set the images or text as a parameter to the sharer window?
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to determine the practical difference between using the com.facebook.session.WebSession and com.facebook.session.JSSession. The documentation ([URL]) has more around WebSession - but the example I have which is closest to what solution I'm trying to implement uses JSSession and it looks like I could avoid all of the JavaScript pass-through & ExternalInterface calls I'm making. It appears that the benefit of using this new ActionScript Facebook API is to avoid having to make all of the Facebook calls via JavaScript.
