Facebook Graph API Status update PHP

Ive managed to started working with the Facebook Graph API

Ive been able to use javascript to redirect to the permissions allow page where Ive specified "publish_stream", Ive received a valid access_token

I want to update the user's status. Following Facebook's documentation I am attempting to post to:

https://graph.facebook.com/{user_id}/feed/access_token=x&message=y

(where {user_id} is the user's facebook uid etc)

Ive tried using CURL, as well as file_get_contents so both as POST and GET requests. The only response I received is a list of the user's previous statuses, it will not update the status with the data im sending.

I must be missing something. The documentation says that's all I need

Tell me if you're still having problems with this code as I have a completed version which this computer doesn't have saved on it! Anyhow! One main thing I've notices is the extra '/' in your url:

https://graph.facebook.com/{user_id}/feed/access_token=x&message=y

should be:

https://graph.facebook.com/{user_id}/feed?access_token=x&message=y

and the code that I built from was

curl -F 'access_token=...' \

-F 'message=Hello, Arjun. I like this new API.' \

https://graph.facebook.com/arjun/feed

and I got this code from here.

I hope this helps,

Jon
