Facebook is deprecating sharer.php (and sharer.php only allows 1 parameter in the shared URL) so I am trying to get the Facebook SDK for Javascript to work with WiseJ.
The initialization seems straightforward enough, an entry under Default.html, under the <body> tag
<!– JS for Facebook SDK for Javascript–>
<script>
window.fbAsyncInit = function () {
FB.init({
appId: ‘12345’,
autoLogAppEvents: true,
xfbml: true,
version: ‘v2.10’
});
FB.AppEvents.logPageView();
};
(function (d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) { return; }
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = “//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js”;
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, ‘script’, ‘facebook-jssdk’));
</script>
(where appID is a valid Facebook App ID)
Now I’m trying to implement the share function, as referenced here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/reference/share-dialog
FB.ui({ method: 'share', mobile_iframe: true, href: 'https://developers.facebook.com/docs/', }, function(response){}); This seems to be jQuery which I guess I am badly putting into my WiseJ MenuItem , as HTML (calling the function via the "onclick" method): Dim strFacebookHTML As String = "<a style='color:inherit;text-decoration:inherit' href='#' " & _ "onclick='" & _ "FB.ui({" & _ "method: 'share'," & _ "mobile_iframe: true," & _ "href: 'https://developers.facebook.com/docs/'," & _ "}, function(response){});'" & _ "" & _ ">Share on FB</a>" Me.mnuShareFacebook.Text = strFacebookHTML Me.mnuShareFacebook.AllowHtml = True In Chrome, clicking the MenuItem results in console error: Unexpected token: } I'm am fairly sure the problem is a syntax error, because I don't write enough Javascript. I'll keep plugging away at it, but if you see something I don't, could you point out my error? thanks, Andrew
I wouldn’t put the code in the href. You should have js file with your FB code added to Default.html and use the functions by name:
<a href=”#” onclick=”MyFB.share(…)”></a>
Or something like that. It makes it a lot easier to deal with the js syntax and with testing since you can call those functions directly.
