Question

I am trying to open a flash gallery with modal box in my iFrame Facebook app, but it is bigger than 520px. I found 2 solutions:

1. Insert a piece of code in the parent windows to make the modal to open with Target _parent, This is impossible since the parent windows is the Facebook!

2. Open flash video with iFrame inside a Facebook Dialog Box,

I have been looking for a tutorial for days without success. Anyone knows how can I do something like this:

    <fb:dialog id="my_dialog">
    <fb:dialog-title>My title</fb:dialog-title> 
    <fb:dialog-content> Flash video </fb:dialog-content>
    </fb:dialog>

Maybe it’s a solution for what I need, but it’s more than 2 months and nobody answered this question.

Here is my page, but remember that it is a work in progress and I do not know how long it will be a useful link:

Thanks in advance.

Didn’t try it out once but it might be because of fbml deprecated.. http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/fbml/

If it is wider than 520px , you can try canvas page (i know user will have to leave fan page) and integrate inside Facebook. It might be even better in user experience perspective, if i have been visiting your page and in tab app if you lock my Facebook screen and show a dialog box with flash gallery, i will annoyed. It will be much better in canvas without any popups. Guess.. 🙂
