Facebook button and IE8

Permalink Browser Info Environment
Hi!

This features works in Firefox, but not in IE8. I'm not sure how to fix it.

I have it on this page:

Any ideas?

Thanks so much for your time on this.

Hi,
I can see the button with ie8.

I know the button sometimes does not show up and it looks like facebook does things that we have no control on.

Cheers
Nic

Thanks for checking this, Nic!

It must be my IE8, because it does not show up at all me. Very strange.

Best wishes,

Michelle

Does your IE have any plugins that might be blocking it?

You need to add the following to your <html> tag in your header file.

xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml" xmlns:og="http://opengraphprotocol.org/schema/"

You probably have something like this:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

Make it look like this:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml" xmlns:og="http://opengraphprotocol.org/schema/">

include that at the top of your HTML file: <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:og="http://opengraphprotocol.org/schema/" xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml">

Include: <script type="text/javascript">FB.init("YOUR_FB_KEY");</script>

at the end... after <fb:login-button onlogin="onlogin()" /></td><td><span class='orangebody'>

it worked for me!
