- Tabs on business pages are called "Profile Tabs" in Facebook parlance.
- Tabs are actually a setting off of an application (so you'll need a very simple application)
- The URL to the tab content must be relative to the main URL (Canvas) of the simple application
- Tabs are limited in functionality - they are markup only (no iframes) and a subset of FBML.
- Inline CSS and Javascript only.
- Flash can be used, but cannot be viewed until a user clicks the element (fb:swf)
- Make sure you specify an image src on the fb:swf tag - otherwise there is nothing for the user to click on to start the flash
- For some reason .htm/.html files wouldn't work for me, though .aspx was fine.
- Images will be cached by Facebook (so throw a query string on if you want to force them to change).
Primarily discussing doing and managing software development - emphasis on .NET and SOA. Other posts about things that are on my mind in true blog style.
