I have a classifieds section. I want to allow users to share a particular ad from a page. I have created a page that allows a user to print the ad out, so I used that page as the actual share link. The problem is, that when I use the script that opens it's own smaller window, no matter what I specify as the link it shares the entire page, not the URL I specify. Here is the code I am using.
<script>function fbs_click() {u='http://<?php echo $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']; ?>/classifieds/printAd.php?AdID=<?php echo $row_rsAds['AdID']; ?>';t=document.title;window.open('http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u='+encodeURIComponent(u)+'&t='+encodeURIComponent(t),'sharer','toolbar=0,status=0,width=626,height=436');return false;}</script><style> html .fb_share_button { display: -moz-inline-block; display:inline-block; padding:1px 20px 0 5px; height:15px; border:1px solid #d8dfea; background:url(http://static.ak.facebook.com/images/share/facebook_share_icon.gif?6:26981) no-repeat top right; } html .fb_share_button:hover { color:#fff; border-color:#295582; background:#3b5998 url(http://static.ak.facebook.com/images/share/facebook_share_icon.gif?6:26981) no-repeat top right; text-decoration:none; } </style> <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=<;url>" class="fb_share_button" onclick="return fbs_click()" target="_blank" style="text-decoration:none;">Share</a>
if I use the following code, it works just as it should, but it won't open in a new smaller window, it goes to the facebook site and away from my site.
<a href="http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=http://<?php echo $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']; ?>/classifieds/printAd.php?AdID=<?php echo $row_rsAds['AdID']; ?>" onclick="return fbs_click()" target="_blank">Share on Facebook</a>

Thanks for you help!
