I can do this using infromation from my database, but is this violating any privacy policies? Maybe you have already encountered other applications, which do that...

Is there a problem with my code? When I copy and paste the URL it gives me I get a login screen, but I don't get asked to give my application access. On the facebook developers application page I have all defaults except that I selected that this would be a desktop application. ?Is there anything else I need?

We've moved facebooker to Github and google groups. I've cross posted this message there. If you fork facebooker on github, I can pull this patch from you and give you credit for the fix. Otherwise, I can just download it and apply it.

The movie gets information from an xml file, which is generated by .rxml file, but this rxml file has no information related to the current facebook user and his session. So I can only pass some data that comes from the flashvars through the flash movie to the .rxml in the form of url arguments. One possible things to pass is fb_sig_user, which is the facebook id of the user. Other available flashvars are listed in the wiki: http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Fb:swf So, I need to have info about the facebook user's friends in the .rxml file. How can I achieve this? Thanks a lot!!! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It's a pretty simple and effective solution, but it's not your only choice anymore. If you're handy with Actionscript 3, you've now got the option of using the Facebook API directly from your Flash app. Google hosts the project. This wasn't available until relatively recently, so I can't say how well it works. If you still want to use your server as an intermediary between Facebook data and your app, you're on the right track; XML makes this a breeze. You've got two options for getting user data: you can use the standard API or use FQL. Either one will allow you to grab a list of a user's friends. From there, you can use a nice .each loop & construct your XML. To be frank, doing this kind of thing is pretty intrinsic to integrating Facebook data into your Flash app, so you'd probably be better off taking a look at the various resources available; they will help much more than a simple response on a mailing list. Pragmatic Bookshelf has a number of resources available including a book and some screencasts (http://www.pragprog.com). Sorry for the RTFM answer, but I really think in this case it is probably your best bet. There's a lot more you can do with Facebooker, so it's really worthwhile.
