[Facebooker-talk] fb_comments and fb_board not working

[Allen Walker]

Actually I'm not even doing that. You are internally storing you own 
comments.

I'm simply attempting to use facebooks built in servers to run my 
dicussion boards and comments via the <fb:board> and <fb:comments> code. 
It should be rather trivial and for some reason it's not working. It 
must have something to do with how facebook is reading the URL and not 
correctly mapping it to the xid.
