Facebook Like Buttons and Apps

Question

I'm able to make Facebook apps. But I have some problems. The documentation highlights this example: http://www.facebook.com/cocacola?v=app_161193133389

My apps are getting included as iFrames, even when I specify FBML - Coke's is more embedded. The "like button" generator creates a different style of like button to Coke's. Coke's uses a built in Facebook CSS stylesheet. Coke also has FB style links down the left side of their page.

Does anyone know how I could go about making an App like that? The documentation really does not cover it. Even useful web-links would be great. Thanks!

Answer 1

Actually, the link to Coke is not an application, but a FB page. The like button showed is the standard like button that you get when you create a page , which is different than the one that you obtain when you use FB social plugins.

They are very different things. A page represents something: a business, product, service, etc., while an application is, well.. an application. Note that pages can hold applications in their tabs, or just normal (and brand new) iframe tabs.
