I'm trying to setup the Facebook sdk for Flex for the first time. I simply copied the Graph API 1.6 web into my lib folder. And when I try and import it, it even shows up as you type, as you can see in img1. But after I save my project I get an error saying it cannot be found. Does anyone know how I should properly setup the facebook flex sdk?

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 was going great with Flex, until I tried to split up my code into separate files. Now I'm struggling. Here are my files and their dependencies:

I'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.

Everything works fine, i.e. everything till it is time to fire the loggedin event. I get asked to log in and all permissions are asked correctly. After I log myself in to facebook, the loggedin event doesn't fire. Is there any way of solving this problem??
i need to connect to have a button on my website that connects to facebook (if not already logged in) and posts to the users wall.I've only done this from within an iFrame - do i still need AppId etc etc?
View 1 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].........
I've recently used the 'Static HTML' application to add autoplaying flash content to a Facebook Page.Nothing too fancy, no sound, and only a few secs long. Now, Facebook say:-"Apps on Pages must not host media that plays automatically without a user's interaction."
What do they mean by 'Media' exactly? I can understand a ban on autoplaying audio content but does the ban extend to something as harmless as an animated GIF? Or more to the point, does an autoplaying .swf file fall under this?
Lastly, what course of action would Facebook take if I did violate this rule? Would they issue a warning (giving me an opportunity to remove the 'offending' item) or would they just shut down my page without any consultation?
I can't find in the Adobe Facebook API how to log the user out of Facebook. The FacebookSessionUtil (and the related sessions and Facebook classes) all have a .logout() function, which will invalidate the user's current *session* within the swf, but it doesn't log the user out of Facebook.
What am I missing here? How are you supposed to log the user out of Facebook with this API? Since it's part of the TOS for Facebook Connect apps, you'd think this would be available in the API somewhere.
Well i developing a Flex desktop app and i cant logout form facebook. I mean after loggin in and updating the photo i want to update, i run the method to log out, which looks like this
FacebookDesktop.logout(handleLogout);
Where handleLogout is a function where i can do other things.The method runs but never log out. I think that maybe loading an other request i could log out, and i find that using:
[URL]
would log out, but i dont know where i ca get the accesToken.
Is there a way to post to a users Facebook wall via fbConnect? (php/as3) I can authenticate and pull info but not post anything. I have searched extensively and not found a working example or docs on how to post directly via AS3. My current work around is to external link to an Ajax page.
View 1 RepliesI am about to start a new project, a facebook app. There are two alternatives for client-side in my mind.Write Flex-Facebook app. Or write html with Ajax and Jquery.
So what are your opinion, which do you recommend?What are the issues about each to take into account?Advantages, disadvantages, subjective opinion?

View 1 RepliesI am considering creating a website with the complexity of Facebook that should be able to scale into the millions of users. My question is: Is there any reason not to use Adobe Flex for such large project apart from the obvious point of requiring everyone to have Flash installed and not having to rely on Adobe? In my view Adobe Flex would reduce the server load for Facebook, because more of the work could me done on the client side.

I would like to supply an username(mail address) and password to an API method and login to Facebook. Is it possible with the special swc library to access the API in this manner? If not, can you give me some hints on how to do it using ExternalInterface and JS?
View 2 RepliesI am calling [url]...........to log in to facebook using the actionscript api (as explained in this tutorial: http:[url]...... But, it does not seem to do anything.Looking at the API source, the only call that is made to JS is

The two javascript libraries which are required are: http:[url].....
However, i cannot find any reference to FBAS in these libraries. Am I even using the correct libraries? Is there another reason I have missed as to why FBAS doesnt exist? or even why calling Facebook.init() does nothing?
This is something I have been trying to figure out, but I am not sure exactly how to do it. I have a flex application that logs into facebook, but after that I can't access any of the facebook api. Right now I am using this HTML to log in:

I am working in a project which uses the Facebook graph-api to log in. I have the requirement of only using a virtual keyboard (no hardware will be present). I have looked everywhere, but can't find a solution for adding a virtual qwerty keyboard to the popUp. I can put the keyboard into a popup, or I could add the qwerty keyboard into the screen with the addChild() method, but I still have one problem: the virtual keyboard does not focus to the textInputs of the popup and when i press a key, everything "explooota".
I mean... when i prees the virtual key, i call a java function wich simulate a physical keyboard, but i lose the focus into the facebook input text and the letter is not in the textinput. and i dont know how to recover the focus.
