surfinagain Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 this worked perfectly with the exception of IE8. is it working for anyone else in IE8? working perfectly in Firefox, Safari, Opera a Chrome. i was able to resolve the issue. it was an code location issue. not sure why it mattered to IE8 but moved it and it's working now in all browsers. thanks for the code!

diy Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I was using the XFBML code as given on facebook page <script src="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1"></script><fb:like layout="button_count" show_faces="false" width="450"></fb:like> on my product info but then i noticed the problem with the fb_xd_fragment pages (people were landing on my site as http://www.mysite.com/product_info.php?products_id=945?fb_xd_fragment and i couldnot understand why Has the problem with fb_xd_fragment been resolved???? ** people landing on http://www.mysite.com/product_info.php?products_id=945?fb_xd_fragment get a blank page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
data2700 Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 aaahhh - what a waste! Guys, simply go to your product_info.php file (parent folder) and try adding the following: <script src="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1"></script><fb:like href="<?php echo HTTP_SERVER . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>" show_faces="false" align="right" width="350"></fb:like> This will quirey the server for the product URL and in turn use the full url as the link on FB to your site. The 'like' box within your product page will also use a 1+1+1 etc method, as more people like the product the box will add each. I recommend the code be added in/around that of the product part number section. Looks good and seems to fit well. Dont see any need to change any of the other code, and this has been tested in Win Enviro's - running IE, Firefox as well as Linux OS running Chrome and Firefox, also works on the Galaxy Sgoogle browser! This is great! Are there any disadvantages to doing it this way? For example, with the other methods that require a facebook developer ID are you able to track the number of likes by product or something like that which you perhaps cannot do using this method? This method is really easy and looks great on my products listing. Enjoy! :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
data2700 Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 i was able to resolve the issue. it was an code location issue. not sure why it mattered to IE8 but moved it and it's working now in all browsers. thanks for the code! Can you post where in the code you located the FB code? I am still not able to get it to display in IE8. UPDATED thanks to surfinagain I kept poking around and trying it in different locations to get it to work in IE8. My site is pretty modified, but the code worked well for me when place in these lines if (tep_not_null($product_info['products_model'])) { $products_name = $product_info['products_name'] . '<br><span class="smallText">[' . $product_info['products_id'] .
