function fb_canvas_process in Drupal for Facebook 5.2

Same name and namespace in other branches
  1. 5 fb_canvas.module \fb_canvas_process()
  2. 6.2 fb_canvas.module \fb_canvas_process()

This function uses regular expressions to convert links on canvas pages to URLs that begin http://apps.facebook.com/...

Call this method from themes when producing either FBML or iframe canvas pages. This is a relatively expensive operation. Its unfortunate that we must do it on every page request. However to the best of my knowledge, Drupal provides no better way.

Parameters

$output is the page (or iframe block) about to be returned.:

$add_target will cause target=_top to be added when producing an: iframe.

This module provides some app-specific navigation to facebook apps.
