A3M - Account Authentication & Authorization Module

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
I have suffered with the facebook issue for a few weeks until i finally figured out a solution, it's related to cross-domain cookie posting that by default is not allowed in IE and Safari or at least not without the correct P3P headers or decreasing security settings in IE. so here it is :-)

If you're using IE, to resolve the infinite redirect to the login screen, add the following code to libraries/Authentication.php at the end of the sign_in() function and before the "redirect('');" line:

Code:

if (stristr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'MSIE'))
{
         header('p3p: CP="ALL DSP COR PSAa PSDa OUR NOR ONL UNI COM NAV"');
}

You may also add the same code in controller/connect_facebook.php right before the "header......" line at the end of the index() function. This should resolve the issues with IE.

For Safari, there is a fix as well that involves adding jQuery code within the FB.Event.subscribe() function and inside controller/connect_facebook.php as well.
