Question

I am using this code to get the response:

<fb:like layout="button_count" notify="true" colorscheme="dark" href="http://www.fbrell.com"></fb:like>
<script>
  // this will fire when any of the like widgets are "liked" by the user
  FB.Event.subscribe('edge.create', function(href, widget) {
    alert('You liked ' + href, widget);
  });
</script>

It’s not giving any response. Can anyone tell what wrong am i doing ?

Assuming that you have the FB Like button appearing, so you must be including the SDK correctly, I was in exactly the same situation – all you’re missing is setting the subscribe up in the fbAsyncInit() function.

        _gaq.push(['_trackSocial', 'facebook', 'like', targetUrl]);
    });
};

If you’re doing this you don’t need an application ID nor do you you need to use the FBML code, you can use the HTML5 inclusion code like <div class='fb-like' data-href='...
