Internet Explorer + Facebook OpenGraph API + AS3 = BUG

If you worked on a Facebook app these last months, you know that Facebook has changed his old REST API by the OpenGraph API. You have some choice to execute the call to Facebook via Actionscript (BigSpaceship Package or FacebookOAuthGraph). It’s not an official list, maybe there is other ressource for this process.

Everything works fine!! Firefox, Chrome, Safari, etc…..hmmm wait a minute. Let’s try with IE. Surprise! Nothing is displayed. After reading some bug reports, some AS3-JS Bridge, Tom finds a solution, a very simple solution. The only thing to do is to change ONE parameter in your facebook application page : In Advanced Settings>Canvas Sessions Parameter > Enabled

And for people who has problems with the “facebook chat” div (when you resize the page,a white square is above your app). You have to change another parameter : Facebook Integration>IFrame Size > Auto-Resize > Enabled.

Yes, developping with Facebook is COOL
