Bump. I also need the answer.

I think you should just check the FaceBook API and they developer program, and see how it can be used. And then if you have a problem, just define it well and then somebody might be able to help you.

So did you check what API they are using, basically this is Forum Nokia Developer Discussion board, we can not know all details of all possible APIs other service providers are offering, as well as Nokia developer offering does not offer any readymade API for utilizing the service emntioned, thus you do need to check what they offer. There are rather many REST services I did try out and added the test apps in our wiki, which you could use as a base, but the actual infomration needed for connecting any service would come from the service itself.

I got stuck @login

the FBlogin button is in IFRAME and apparently has "javascript:window.open" and does not work under WRT environment should have "javascript:widget.openURL"

the FBlogin button works in mobile browser, but not in WRT

and the session/cookies are different from browser to WRT

so it won't work to login in a browser and the WRT app would see you logged in

keep looking for a solution..

the only solution that I have is for example to "connect to facebook" only my top from games... although the top will open in a browser

Code:

<?php

define('YOUR_APP_ID', '*********');
define('YOUR_APP_SECRET', '*******************');

function get_facebook_cookie($app_id, $app_secret) {
  $args = array();
  parse_str(trim($_COOKIE['fbs_' . $app_id], '\\"'), $args);
  ksort($args);
  $payload = '';
  foreach ($args as $key => $value) {
    if ($key != 'sig') {
      $payload .= $key . '=' . $value;
    }
  }
  if (md5($payload . $app_secret) != $args['sig']) {
    return null;
  }
  return $args;
}

$cookie = get_facebook_cookie(YOUR_APP_ID, YOUR_APP_SECRET);

$user = json_decode(file_get_contents(
    'https://graph.facebook.com/me?access_token=' .
    $cookie['access_token']));

$friends=file_get_contents(
    'https://graph.facebook.com/me/friends?access_token=' .
    $cookie['access_token'])
?>
<html>
  <body>
    <?php if ($cookie) { ?>
      Welcome <?= $user->name ?>(<?= $user->id ?>)<?= $user->id ?>
      <?= $friends ?>
    <?php } else { ?>
      <fb:login-button></fb:login-button>
    <?php } ?>
    <div id="fb-root"></div>
    <script src="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js"></script>
    <script>
      FB.init({appId: '<?= YOUR_APP_ID ?>', status: true,
               cookie: true, xfbml: true});
      FB.Event.subscribe('auth.login', function(response) {
        window.location.reload();
      });
    </script>
  </body>
</html>
