The problem is the security system - it requires OAuth which is a secure socket system.

Can't you put up the communication on your homepage->facebook and send requests from the app to your homepage? Haven't looked much at facebook so have no clue really...

Write a tiny php script that does this, and I'll host it on glbasic.com.

MrTAToad

Yes, I think Moru should do that :) Would be very handy.  If you could also do one for Twitter that would be great too!

Moru

Aw, but I hate facebook and twitter! I don't even have any accounts :-)

(But yes I like to program, will have to look into it I guess :-)

I think about quitting facebook as well. I saw some TV show about it lately that really shocked me.

Isn't facebook wonderful?  Grant my app permissions, and I can view everything you do and post to your wall with a php script  :good:

Yes, here in sweden they make a big ruccus every time a politician gets caught "likeing" or joining some facebook group. But what I heard it's not even needed to join a group yourself, the creater of that group can join you if you are friends or something like that... Not to mention when you give my app access, I can dump all your friends email and phonenumbers and sell them to adverticement firms or book $1 every week for "mmorpg merchandise" or whatever. :-) Well, it used to be possible at least, mabe security is higher now? :-)

So whos gona be the one to write the php script to do all this? I have tried but with no luck. Not very php skilled I am afraid.
Come on who ever does it will be my hero. I am a super sexy blonde.  :-[

But the solution to that is very simple: don't allow applications to access your information. You do get a choice to say yes or no.

Personally I think I've only allowed 2 apps access to my info, but whenever I come across something that wants it too, I just categorically say no. Problem solved. ;)

But yeah, it shouldn't really be an issue.
