I am trying to fetch friend list. I wrote following code.. <pre class="prettyprint"><code>$friends = $this->facebook->api('me/friends'); echo count($friends); </code></pre> Answer was 1. (though it should have been 456). What am I doing wrong? Thanks for help.

The data structure returned by the API is different than you think. Try <code>echo count($friends['data']);</code> instead.
