[Facebooker-talk] Facebook connect and One-line stories

[Adeel Ahmad]

Unfortunately I haven't been able to get very far integrating this into my
app. I get the "wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)" error on the line: <%
init_fb_connect "XFBML","Api" do %>in the application layout file and can't
seem to get away from it so my app never gets to the its main page. I am
able to get Mike's example app somewhat working. I'm on Rails 2.1.1 and the
example app is 2.2.2. Don't know if there is a dependency there.
However even with Mike's app, while I'm able to see the login button and
click it to get the Connect prompt, it always tells me I'm unable to login.
I did update the facebooker.yml file with my dev app keys.
Any ideas?
