What Facebook API call results in this? The result shows a publish dialog

I've asked this before, but in a different way, so I'm hoping asking it like this could get an answer :)

What API call results in this following dialog appearing:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/222489/publishdialog.png

By using the FB.ui({method: 'stream.publish' ... function all I get is a "Post to Your Wall" dialog, and all great Facebook games get the dialog in the screenshot. So I must be using the wrong function.

I don't understand how you've missed it, it's the first snippet of code in the FB.ui documentation:

FB.ui(
   {
     method: 'feed',
     name: 'Facebook Dialogs',
     link: 'http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/dialogs/',
     picture: 'http://fbrell.com/f8.jpg',
     caption: 'Reference Documentation',
     description: 'Dialogs provide a simple, consistent interface for applications to interface with users.',
     message: 'Facebook Dialogs are easy!'
   },
   function(response) {
     if (response && response.post_id) {
       alert('Post was published.');
     } else {
       alert('Post was not published.');
     }
   }
);

Result in my test app:

Its known as a Feed Dialogue.. its one of the Three Facebook Dialogues that use user interaction for doing some work... ItI dosent need a API call (It was possible with Facebook.showFeedDialog but now facebook dosent support it) instead u redirect the user to the Url for these dialogues.

http://www.facebook.com/dialog/feed?<your different attributes as quesry string>

For having this in your own page you Can open it in an iFrameby setting attribute display=iframe but you need an access token for that..

Here is a complete description..
