Facebook "Like" button gets broken on IE when using the new Facebook API?
Your server gets weird requests with fb_xd_fragment in the URL?
This is a Facebook bug with the following quick solution:
1/ Change your FB.init to the following
FB.init({appId: appId, status: true, cookie: true, xfbml: true, channelUrl: 'http://example.com/channel.html'});
// ^ channel URL above used to workaround fb_xd_fragment bug
2/ Create the static file for http://example.com/channel.html with the following content:
<script src="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js"></script>
IMPORTANT NOTE: ensure channel.html has proper expiry headers sent, otherwise it might slow down user experience and overload your server.

I don't even have the FB.Init you mention because I'm just inserting the like box and like button. What should I do in this case?
ReplyDeleteAm I to assume that you remove the original line of code where you included the FB connect script before? Could u please detail how to do the expiry headers thing as well? Thanks
ReplyDeleteHow does channel Url method work? Does it prevent the browser from creating a duplicate copy of the page or does it handles the duplicate requests?
ReplyDeleteMore details how to do this for us non developers would be great!
ReplyDeleteThe above instructions are a fix for developers. If you are trying to access a website that has the problem, your solution is using a different browser, other than IE.
ReplyDeleteOr I suppose you could play the good samaritan and email this article to the site's web developers.
