[Facebooker-talk] facebook_session not working for me

Tue Apr 29 11:00:08 EDT 2008

Yes, User B is definitely asked to install the application - but it
never sends the correct content (the _profile.erb partial) to the
@user.profile_fbml

Again, here's the new action in the invitations controller:

  def new
    if params[:from]
      @user = facebook_session.user

      @user.profile_fbml = render_to_string(:partial=>"profile",
:locals=>{:from=>params[:from]})
    end
    @from_user_id = facebook_session.user.to_s
  end

Thanks,
dustin
