Can I create a dynamic, Ajax widget as a Facebook app?

I'm confused by the many different ways to extend Facebook.

My Q: Can I create a Facebook App in an iframe which will display an Ajax widget? This is the FB "canvas" option, yes?

Thanks.

It's not, what your are looking for is the Iframe option.

With an iframe you can include everything you need. The canvas option is not as flexible as you probably need it, and it's because of security. With full JS you could potentially do anything with an user account.

The iframe provides a sandbox for facebook.
