AddThis Facebook Send Button Not Displaying

Question

I'm using asp.net and cannot get the AddThis Facebook "Send" button work. They claim (http://www.addthis.com/help/custom-buttons#facebook-send) this is the code needed:

<div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style">
<a class="addthis_button_facebook_send"></a>
</div>

But it doesn't display anything at all. I already have an AddThis toolbar implemented and everything else works fine, even the Facebook "Like" button, which uses the following code:

<div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style">
<a class="addthis_button_facebook_like"></a>
</div>

Since I can't really find any posts about this problem, and since AddThis says it should work, could the problem be because of the .net framework?

Answer 1

I was having the same problem. This is how I resolved it:

1) Moved the AddThis javascript src tag to the bottom of the page where I'm loading the buttons

2) Added the below to the HTML tag of my page.

xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml"

I got this from AddThis Send button page

Edit: It looks like the AddThis Facebook button has changed quite a bit, here is the new page for it, since the other link goes to a 404.
