Cannot get app_data passed to my facebook tab page

I have tried a few solutions and I cannot seem to retrieve the "app_data" that I am passing to my facebook tab page.

UPDATE---------------- For my tabbed page I am using the following and it is not working:

// Connect to Facebook
$facebook = new Facebook(array(
        'appId'  => $FB_APP_ID, 
        'secret' => $FB_APP_SECRET
));
$signed_request = $facebook->getSignedRequest();
echo ($signed_request["app_data"]);//Nothing is output here!

$facebook = new Facebook(array(
    'appId' => '$testapp_id',
    'secret' => '$testapp_skey',
    'cookie' => true
));



$signed_request = $facebook->getSignedRequest();



$page_id = $signed_request["page"]["id"];
$page_admin = $signed_request["page"]["admin"];
$like_status = $signed_request["page"]["liked"];
$country = $signed_request["user"]["country"];
$locale = $signed_request["user"]["locale"];    
$fanpagid =$page_id;    

try {
$page_info  = $facebook->api("/".$page_id."?fields=link");
}catch(Exception $o) {
}

$fanpage=$page_info["link"];
$fullpageurl=$fanpage."?sk=app_".$app_id;

try with this code ......

app_data in the signed_request is for page tab apps,

For regular canvas apps the values should be available as just $_REQUEST['app_data']
