facebook-windows8-sample's Issues

Bitmap Image posted with weird colors

When a stream with the content type: "image/bmp" is posted to the facebook wall the colors get messed up. Is this a bug on your or on facebooks side?

Example:
When an image is selected in internet explorer and shared the Bitmap shared object is of "image/bmp" type and can then be uploaded to facebook.

Cancel button doesn't works

After opened login popup, if user click on Cancel Button nothing happened.

I think that the login popup must be closed or cancel button must be removed from UI.

TryParseOAuthCallbackUrl is not work

It can't parse uri:
https://www.facebook.com/connect/login_success.html#
access_token=AAAHSm.... ...Azf9y&expires_in=4681

Enable checking if AccesToken is alive

Is there a way to check if accestoken is alive?

I think that is a good idea.

update sample to use oauth web broker

Invalid App ID

This sample looks like a great starting point and I'd really like to have a look, but every time I press the login button, it throws me an exception that the app id is invalid.
I've changed the app id and facebookid on both scrumptious and sample code but it says that the id is invalid on both. I've tried with other ids too but the same thing.
Would be great if you could shed some light :)
Thank you.

Facebook login pop-up issues (Cancel button on Facebook login pop-up doesn’t work)

Facebook login pop-up issues

There are two issues in Facebook C# SDK 6.4.2, related to Facebook login pop-up:
• “Cancel” button on Facebook login pop-up doesn’t work
• Facebook login pop-up loads webpage inside its window

•      For example, this can be done by specifying incorrect password for Facebook account several times.
  

They also reproduce on latest version of Facebook SDK (6.6.0).

Is there any information of when the issues will be resolved?
