Question

I have been working on trying to pull friends birthdays from the facebook API and I have been able to pull my friends uid’s but when I replace the uid request with anything else (i.e, name,sex,birthday, etc.) it breaks the code. Any insight would be a major help. Thanks

 <div id="fb_login"> 

             <div id="fb-root"></div>
          <script>
            window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
              FB.init({

                status     : true, 
                cookie     : true,

                oauth      : true,
              });
            };
            (function(d){
               var js, id = 'facebook-jssdk'; if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}
               js = d.createElement('script'); js.id = id; js.async = true;

Here is the code that worked. Thanks for all your help cpilko. I couldn’t have got it done with out your help.

        try{
            $fql    =   "SELECT name, birthday_date FROM user WHERE uid IN (SELECT uid2          FROM friend WHERE uid1=me())";
            $param  =   array(
                 'method'    => 'fql.query',
                'query'     => $fql,
                'callback'  => ''
            );
            $fqlResult   =   $facebook->api($param);
        }
        catch(Exception $o){
            d($o);
    }
}
