{
   "error": {
      "message": "Error validating application.",
      "type": "OAuthException"
   }
}
or:




{
"error": {
"message": "Error validating access token: Session has expired at unix time 1318374000. The current unix time is 1322173147.",
"type": "OAuthException"
}

Hm...nice question. According to the Graph API docs you can like any object that has a /likes connection. And, again, the page has /likes connection, so you might be able to post a like...However, I have not faced this so far. Having in mind all this, you should be able to make a button, style it as FB like button and like a page in the code behind. If docs say right. But, eventually, you will have to deal with authentication forms...tough stuff..

The easiest way to do this is to use the social plugin - http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/. Right, you must use the generated html and place it in the host page, but, in my opinion, this is the best you can do. I used the like button social plugin several months ago and it worked just fine!

Your last option may be to use some of the FB API wrappers from codeplex.

This is all I can think about. If anyone has a better solution, please share it here.

Thanks for your post. But could you explain us how to add a FB like button in a SL page ? (without using windowless of course).

Thanks
