The Allowed FBML and HTML Tags page in the Facebook dev docs specifies the markup you can use in feed stories. You provide feed stories to Facebook in three sizes: one-line, short, and full. In full stories you can use HTML, but full stories don't normally show up on the user's friends' News Feeds (I don't think). For short-sized stories, the title and body are all text, but you can include images, video, etc. with them using the template_data argument when you call showFeedDialog. The user's friends' should be able to see that media in their news feeds. Nice work, by the way, on DPEQ..

My last post showed up in my feed and also in my friend's feed, including the URL. So if you send the story to Facebook as HTML, I think it "does" show up.

Is there a way to notify/contact a user if he only logged in via Facebook and didn't provide his email address?

Thank you for the props!

By "text", I meant you can use <b>, <a> and <br>, but that's all stuff that shows up as text--you can't include images or formatting in one-line or short stories, apart from what you pass in template_data.

For contacting users, there are the notifications.sendEmail and notifications.send API methods. For notifications.sendEmail, you have to have already requested the "email" extended permission, possibly usin... <more>
