similar to: respond_to formats, fbml and fbjs

I wrote an fbjs library to help speed up development of some of my applications. I plan to have some sort of "official" release with a blog entry and github repository at some point, but I thought you guys might want to have it earlier. It''s still a work in progress. I''ve been using every method at least once in my application but it''s still possible there is

I attached a rails helper implementation of the fb_table described here: http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Facebook_Styles I included testing and comments. I hope you find it useful. Curiously, it''s really a small extension of FBML. Richard -------------- next part -------------- Index: test/rails_integration_test.rb

So if I am using fbml,canvas & facebooker, can I do ajax calls? if so how? From reading it seems they support some sort of mock ajax, but I don''t really understand, can somone explain to me? If I cant do ajax, can I still do javascript? Can I use 3rd party libs like prototype & scriptaculous? thanks Joel

Hi facebooker-ers, It looks to me like facebooker does not currently support iframe facebook apps - or am I missing something? My first problem as I understand it is as follows - When you are logged into facebook, and access a facebook application, facebook tacks on a whole lot of extra fb_sig parameters to the request (including fb_sig_user) that the application can then validate to

I''m working on an app, and am new to both ruby and facebooker. Here is my current area of confusion: What should happen on a user''s initial visit to my app? When I hit apps.facebook.com/<my app> for the first time with no cookies or sessions or anything, I''m asked if I want to log into the app, etc., and am then redirected to my callback url outside of facebook.

I was hoping to announce this a month ago, but some legal wrangling took longer than expected. Developing Facebook Platform Applications with Rails is now available in Beta at http://www.pragprog.com/titles/mmfacer It walks you through creating a Facebook application with Facebooker, all the way from setup to handling large number of users. Thank all of you for asking questions on this

Can I second this question? Could someone provide a simple example of how they set up a functional test for a controller that uses facebooker?? Do you have to copy a lot of stuff from rails_integration_test.rb ? I guess that since we don''t have a test facebook to test against, we have to stub out a lot of stuff right? --simon > Hi, I''m wondering if folks would care

I found a reference to using attachment_fu and followed the lead of it but having an issue with the redirect_to that renders the fb:render tag - In my form I''m setting the canvas to false, file is being uploaded / save fine but when I attempt to redirect: redirect_to :action => :new, :canvas => true Unfortunatly it looks like my callback URL is getting printed twice, e.g.

Hi Facebookers, Is there a helper or suggested approach for presenting validation errors on an fbml form? Something to translate rails error markup to fbml:error markup? thanks Joel

Hey folks, I''m part way through a project using, I think rev 73 of Facebooker, and was getting along pretty well. I''ve since tried the latest rev (86) and have run into a few problems. First one was with the helpers in that for some reason now none of them are available so I''ve had to use helper :application, etc in my controller. Second one, which

Hi there, I have a controller that responds to fbml and html, with html at the top. In all browsers, this works as expected - When I''m hitting the controller from my normal app, I get html. When I hit it inside facebook, I get fbml. However, with Firefox 3 hitting the normal app, I''m getting fbml for some odd reason. Am I crazy? Sudara

Hello, I am running into issues using *_path() and *_url() helpers the Facebooker Publisher framework. I encounter the following error when using these helpers while *inside of a partial*: undefined method `default_url_options'' for ActionView::Base:Class I''ve seen a few other people speak about this issue, yet I haven''t seen any resolution on the mailing list yet.

Hey everyone. I''ve got a best practices question. How are you guys rendering newsfeeds? We have a couple of apps where we send newsfeed items from a backend process. As such, we aren''t in the context of a controller and can''t use the rails template rendering. We''ve tried about 3 different ways to make that bearable, but aren''t having much

Hi, I started with rfacebook but given the recent events figure its best to move over to facebooker. I have: 1.) Installed the facebooker plugin 2.) setup my facebook app (fbml/canvas) 3.) created a method on controller & view to handle initial request 4.) added "ensure_application_is_installed_by_facebook_user" to top off application.rb I am able to get to my landing page

Ok. I''m not having any success with publishing profile FBML. Example code: class WelcomeController < ApplicationController layout "facebook" ensure_application_is_installed_by_facebook_user def index @user = facebook_session.user ... @user.profile_fbml = render_to_string( :template => ''welcome/profile'' ) end end Results in

Hello Eveyone, I am new here, and am have no idea how to setup routes in the routes.rb file while using fbml. The regular map.resources :gifts map.resources :wishlists map.resources :invitations map.resources :comments does not work. This tutorial http://rfacebook.wordpress.com/2008/02/04/quickstartfacebooker/ says to create a map.root, such as the one mentioned "map.root

Hey All, I''m trying to do a simple form_for (and I also get it with form_tag) and I''m getting the following error: ActionView::TemplateError (No :secret given to the #protect_from_forgery call. Set that or use a session store capable of generating its own keys (Cookie Session Store).) on line #2 of users/new.fbml.erb: 1: <h1>Welcome To Courses, Let''s Get

If I want to use fbml elements and rails tags, is there a way to do within a fb:editor? if I do: <% facebook_form_for(:task, at task,:url => create_task_path) do |f| %> Assign Task To: <%= fb_friend_selector %> <%=f.text_field :ttype, :label=> "Title"%> <%=text_field_tag :newrnumdays, ndays, :label => "# Days"%>

So I have an existing app & facebook app in same rails application, for now I have decided to go the route of creating a controller for facebook stuff (called FaceController). (setup is canvas, fbml) So I have: facebook config http://myurl:myport/face/ My controllers name is face, so I dont even need a manual route, for the landing page it works like a charm. but, when I try to make
