Once again, Facebook has thwarted developers' attempts to build successful applications on their platform by removing the ability to [easily] add application tabs to brand pages.
Their solution? Create your own (expletive) "add tab dialog" page.
Honestly, who runs this group?
Here is the "template" provided by Facebook:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:og="http://ogp.me/ns#"
xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml">
<body>
<a href="#" onclick=window.open("http://www.facebook.com/dialog/pagetab?app_id=YOUR_APP_ID&redirect_uri=YOUR_URL","PageTab","width=500,height=200");>Dialog</a>
</body>
</html>Rather than deal with the various hacks other developers have come up with, I decided to write my own, as it appears I'll need it over the next foreseable future. I've verified this works and does actually allow you to add an app tab to your own brand page(s).
