Can anyone tell me why this works: 

https://graph.facebook.com/fql
?q=SELECT display_name FROM application WHERE app_id=0&access_token=...

(and returns 0 results, obviously)

but this doesn’t: 

https://graph.facebook.com/fql
?q=SELECT display_name FROM application WHERE app_id>=0&access_token=...

(HTTP 500)

The FQL pages on Facebook itself only ever give the simplest of queries – they never give samples of more complex queries involving strpos() and anything other than =.

I am aware of the need to work on an indexed column, but app_id is definitely one of those 🙂

    If the column is indexable you still need to provide specific values for it.
    If you could provide vague ranges (e.g. ‘>0’) it would defeat the restriction of requiring you to specify the target objects first, and filter later
