Question

I have been creating Facebook apps for sometime now. I use the javascript SDK to trigger a popup to ask for the user’s permissions. The popup is activated when the user clicks a button, so not on page load or by an event other than a click. Now recently browsers have been blocking the permissions popup where this NEVER used to be a problem in the past. Any ideas?

Thanks

For Facebook applications, there are several different options for display modes. popup is simply one of them.

You may be interested in using any of the following: page, popup, touch (mobile devices), and iframe. page may be the most convenient for you as iframe is disallowed for certain dialog functionality.

Enjoy and good luck!
