fb wall posting about facebook-android-sdk

[Korriged]

Here is a code you can use after having corrected the bug #3:

---

/**
 * Publishes information on Facebook wall of the connected user
 * Note: the user shall be logged in
 * 
 * @param callingContext Context of the calling Activity 
 * @return true if publication is possible
 */
public boolean publish(Context callingContext) {

    // Checks if there is a connection / if the user is logged in
    if(!facebookConnection.isSessionValid()) {
        return false;
    }


    // Builds the pieces of information to be displayed on Facebook wall
    // Note that it is not possible to jump to next line (e.g. \n, <br/>)

    // Builds the message
    String message = transformToHTML("Message");

    // Builds the title
    String title = transformToHTML("Title");

    // Builds image URL
    String url = transformToHTML("http://www.kratiroff.com/logo-facebook.jpg");

    // Builds the 1st line
    String firstLine = transformToHTML("1st line");

    // Builds the 2nd line
    String secondLine = transformToHTML("2nd line");

    // Creates the publish request to be sent to Facebook
    // Refer to http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Stream.publish
    //  for parameters to send in the request
    Bundle parameters = new Bundle();

    parameters.putString("attachment", transformToURL(attachments));
