Hi Gopi,
In order to make calls to api you need a token. When you authorize your app in popup, the token is pushed in the last step into callback.html. Now callback.html hast to push it back to your main app (via javascript-simple or LocalConnection-advanced callback). It it succeed with sending the token to the main app, it tries to close itself using javascript window.close() method. Could you somehow debug the issue with IE and send some report where the javascript fails?

Hi Jozef Chúťka,

I could post on authenticated user’s friends wall successfully only when the pop-up window (normal callback.html) closed automatically. Firefox and crome browsers are able to close the callback.html after authentication, but Internet explorer unable to close the callback.html automatically.

please suggest !
I would also like to know the purpose of Advanced callback.html

Hi – I’m able to authorize in my flash only app using your great code – dumb question tho – I have this return object where I can get first name , last name like so

var obj:Object = event.currentTarget.me as Object;
_firstname = obj.first_name;
_lastname = obj.last_name;

I’m confused about how to get access to the profile pic of the user tho – when i try the callComplete portion of the code – a status update gets posted but the result is event.rawdata is not recognized as a ByteArray – any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Cheers

@Ben,
I can see you defined .swf script access for crossdomain for both .swf files, as well as localconnection name with underscore correctly. Popup opens and closes by itself (however I am not able to find close command in javascript – maybe injected from callback.swf?) … I can also see the redirect from facebook to
http://www.monstromatic.com/bin/callback.html#access_token=***********&expires_in=4560
so window.location.hash should contain correct info… I believe there is some issue with handling hash value in your flash. You should debug that

Hello Jozef

Thanks for your great blog!
Here is my problem :

The html page that wraps the swf is in domainA.com and declared in the facebook app, but the swf is in domainB.com (caching server, cdn with transparent redirection). When I try to connect to facebook, the auhorisation fails. Any idea?

P.S. When the html and the swf are in the same domain, everything worksfine…

Thanks for your help!

Hi again Jeff.

I’m thinking about this method to post to wall and i was wondering: it’s only possible to post to the current user wall? Is not possible to post to his wall and to some page (for example the app profile page)?

Cheers!

MauroX, it really seems like there is an restrictive crossdomain on:
http://api-video.facebook.com/crossdomain.xml
so you will only be able to test it when running debug build from your local… what you should do is to try everything works there, and than make server side proxy using php or something you are more familiar with:
