[Facebooker-talk] profile_publisher_extensions.rb line #17

[Vidal Graupera]

Hi Mike,

It didn't seem to do it for me, but the project I am working on is on  
Rails 1.2.6. (Maybe it does on 2.x.)

Note: on line #24 of the same file, there is a "to_json" so as a minor  
point it should be removed for consistency. It was confusing to me.

I know this is probably not an issue for most people since they are on  
Rails 2.x, but, for anyone who hits this problem. I found that Rails  
1.x does not generate valid JSON (at least not valid enough for FB) so  
Facebook will reject the output render_publisher_interface call. As a  
work around, I used the ruby json gem instead--adding "require 'json'"  
and used JSON.unparse to make this  call work.

Cheers,

Vidal.
