I created the application on Facebook following a step by step approach. However I am not able to see the app on facebook.

I have followed the steps and added the various urls as well as made the facebook apps FBML

I have tried the following different widgets with Clearspring widgetids
1. 4a816e93bb2fac20
2. 4a94d1f0ede8018d

However these are not working in Facebook. They have the clearspring menu but the application does not load in Facebook.

Hi,

I have shared your widget to facebook and i am also seeing the same behavior.

This is the src to your app when posted to facebook.

http://widgets.clearspring.com/o/4a816e ... d1c75f/-/-

This is loading correctly when viewed outside facebook. So can you post a forum in facebook and tell them that your flash has loading issue when posted to facebook.

Please let us know in case of any questions.

I have checked confirmed & reconfirmed. I think that it is unlikely to be a problem with Facebook, but it is a problem with Clearspring.

I used the src provided by you to create a Facebook app in an iFrame app with the canvas url you provided http://widgets.clearspring.com/o/4a816e ... d1c75f/-/-

The application loads information from http://apps.facebook.com/kitocalendar/which means that it is able to load the widget url provided by you correctly. However, when I put it through Clearspring using FBML, only the Clearspring wizard loads which I can use to share and the application does NOT load. This clearly suggests that Facebook has loaded Clearspring container/wizard which does not then load our application. This behavior is for the following wizards
1. 4a816e93bb2fac20
2. 4a94d1f0ede8018d
This can also be seen at the Facebook app http://apps.facebook.com/testclearapp

Facebook doesn't seem at fault. Either me or Clearspring has some issue. Can you look into this in greater detail. I am unable to create a Facebook application of not only this, but also another widget as well.

Regards,
Tejas

Hi,

The loading of your swf may be blocked by the security concerns in the fbml language. Iframe will work fine since it is a standard html component. The swf has issues only when rendering inside an fbml component.
Please confirm it with facebook since all of our facebook apps are working fine and only this has issue when posted to facebook.
