Facebook Application with PHP running loosing session
- by ArneRie
Iam trying to build an Facebook Application based on PHP. The Application is running under php on my own Webhost inside an Canvas as iFrame.
I have included the newest Client Library for PHP from Facebook: facebook-php-sdk-94fcb13
To Authorize the user inside my application iam trying to use Facebook Connect, like the example shipped with the Client. Everything works fine the 1st Login, but when i hit the F5 Key to reload the page, the session is lost and i have to login again. When i call my application outside of the Facebook Canvas everything is fine.
Iam not sure, but i think my Browser (Chrome/FireFox - Ubuntu) is not allowing to store an cookie inside an iFrame.
Does someone knows an solution for this Problem? Here are some Parts of the Sourcecode:
$facebook = new Facebook(array(
'appId' => 'x',
'secret' => 'x',
'cookie' => 'true',
));
$session = $facebook->getSession();
$facebook->setSession($session);
$me = null;
// Session based API call.
if ($session) {
try {
$uid = $facebook->getUser();
$me = $facebook->api('/me');
} catch (FacebookApiException $e) {
error_log($e);
}
}
// login or logout url will be needed depending on current user state.
if ($me) {
$logoutUrl = $facebook->getLogoutUrl();
} else {
$loginUrl = $facebook->getLoginUrl();
}
