Facebook connect showing blank popup on login in Internet explorer 8

Question

I am integrating facebook login to my application and it is working fine in browsers except IE. It opens the login window, after login redirecting to http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/connect/xd_proxy.php, and got stuck there displaying a blank page in the popup. In other browsers it will close the popup and redirect to my site. My application url is like http://dev.mysite.com/app/. so I have given the domain name dev.mysite.com in facebook application settings. I am using facebook javascript sdk and my site is in PHP. Some one please help me to figure out the actual problem.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

If someone is still having problems, there are two things that usually cause fb login problems (it stays open, blank, no response..) in IE:

1. Missing channelUrl parameter in FB.init.
2. Protected mode: IE -> Internet Options -> Security tab -> Local intranet -> (check) Enable protected mode

Answer 2

I have solved the issue by giving channelUrl parameter in FB.init . Now its working fine. Given absolute url to channel receiver. Content of that file will be a single line <script src="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js"></script> . Thanks to all :) `
