How can I share a photo with the facebookClient? Is there a similar command like the publish, but for sharing?

No, I don't think that there a specific share functionnality in Facebook JS SDK, there is only a Feed Dialog : http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/javascript/FB.ui/

You can do it with this code:

function fbShare(share) { var w = 640; var h = 460; var sTop = window.screen.height/2-(h/2); var sLeft = window.screen.width/2-(w/2); var shareUrl = 'http://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=' + share; var sharer = window.open(shareUrl, "Share", "status=1,height="+h+",width="+w+",top="+sTop+",left="+sLeft+",resizable=0"); }

share parameter is url to share.

Benorama, you can implement it in library

Indeed you could use the legacy sharer, even if it looks like this is not really supported by Facebook anymore.

Note: be careful with window.open, you might get blocked by popup blockers.

@brzezi How can I use your code with the plugin? Can you give a more detailed example?

mateuszbrzezinski commented 11 years ago

With this snap of code you dont need plugin, just add that function fbShare as javascript function somewhere on your page or in js file, then in onClick event you can call fbShare('http://some.url.to.share.com');
