Hello!

I'm seeing the gallery include imagevuex within a tab in my Facebook fan page.

Facebook disable the direct option of using iframes and now we must do so by creating a facebook app.

anyone tried it? any experience?


Thanks and regards.

You could use imagevuex within a tab of your facebook earlier? I have never seen this ...

Facebook app? It could be an option. You want to have a hosted Imagevue, and then easily link it into facebook? Wouldnt it be better perhaps with some html/javascript solution for this app instead of using SWF?

Good morning:

I've been researching and could be done in 2 ways:

Swf directly integrate the FBML code: http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Fb:swf

Creating a Facebook-App to call imagevuex html code of your hosting.

I will continue searching and I start testing.

Greetings!

EDIT - never mind this. I mixed the reply up with another post:

Looks interesting, I will take a closer look in time. I would still think a html layout style would be more functional as an Imgevue frontend for Facebook though ...

Facebook apps that run flash already exist. I used one for a time (but don't recall the name). You just need to do a through search of the FB applications.

Looked it up. It's called "My Web Embed". It handles SWF.

Interesting ... I will have a go at it soon. Don't really see that an Imagevue gallery embedded into Facebook will be such an important feature, especially because it needs to be downsized. Then again, its a nice way to share your photos on facebook without having to set up a separate gallery ...

Agreed....was just pointing out that an app exists for it.

People can't comment on or share a specific image using Imagevue in FB, which is what FB is really all about. A URL in the "Information" side bar to the hosted IV gallery is probably a better idea.
