I would like to pull the share site thumbnail from:
http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=my_website_url
inside the tag
<div class="UIThumbPager_Thumbs">
I would replace “my_website_url” with a given URL.
Thank you! 🙂
OK, now I know what you want.
There is currently no API call to do this. The only thing I can suggest is scrape that URL the same way that they scrape a site to get that article.
I’m not sure how you are getting the URL you are going to use into your site. It might be hard if it’s on the fly.
The best option is to scrape and store the image URL somewhere in a database.
The other option is for certain sites have a base image that you use if an image is not currently available for that article. i.e Have a generic Google or Digg image when the scrape is not ready on FB.
