Facebook allows the creation of web pages inside Facebook accounts. Not in the profile page, but in a place called "Pages".
You can create nice looking content in tabs with pictures controlled by CSS and even Flash.
You can check out the LingoTip Facebook Pages and see the tabs with our multilingual widget inside.
Creating Pages Inside Facebook
If you already know how to create pages inside Facebook, you can skip this.
To create Flash or HTML content inside Facebook you’ll need to be able to create a Static FBML Box on your Page. For this, you first need to have Pages.
Creating Facebook Pages
To create a Page go to here.
If you have Pages setup, go to Home in your Facebook
and look for the Ads and Pages link on the left of the screen.
Then click Pages link and you will enter the Pages setup area.
You can also reach the Pages area by clicking Accounts on the top right of your screen and then clicking Manage Pages.
Now you need to install the Static FBML application.
Static FBML is a Facebook application that enables integration of FBML code inside the Pages.
Install the Static FBML Application
Create a New Tab for Your Content
Create an FBML tab.
Go to Pages and click the + sign in the Tabs-line and add FBML.
After adding the new tab it is still empty.
Click the Edit Page link on the left.
Then click Applications link on the left.
You will see the FBML application. Now click the Go To Application link and you are ready to insert the Flash code.
Up until now it was Facebook-related settings. Now we’ll show you how to insert the LingoTip multilingual content.
LingoTip Multilingual Content
Our multilingual Flash content is created only when the source text was entered as text and not when uploaded as a file.
After you issue a translation request, go to My LingoTip and click the magnifying glass icon of the specific transaction.
Clicking the magnifying class icon will take you to a page where you can see the embedded flash code:
Check the Facebook format (FBML) check box to create an FBML code to paste on the Facebook Pages.
Copy the LingoTip flash FBML code, and paste it on the Facebook Page (tab) you created. Give your tab a title and you’re all set.
