Facebook “Like Box” and JQuery

I'm attempting to add a FB "Like Box" to a website I'm developing. Not too familiar with Facebook apps, but so far I've gone the non-IFRAME route, using the FB SDK script include.

I'm fairly certain I've got almost everything setup correctly. In fact, I see the widget appear when I visit the page UNCACHED (i.e. in FF, I hit CTRL+SHIFT+R to reload all content to avoid loading from cache). Once I revisit the site, or move around within the site by clicking links, the content does not reappear.

I'm wondering if it's an issue with a) the channel.php file, or b) the apps interaction with my use of JQuery. The channel.php file is verbain what is provided by Facebook (using PHP's caching mechanism).

Here's the site currently: http://www.morningfatty.com/demo - It might be easier to list this rather than post several code snippets.

I went to your website and didn't see the like box. I checked the HTML code and it all appeared fine. The div looked like <div data-header="false" data-stream="false" data-border-color="#40ADAD" data-show-faces="true" data-colorscheme="light" data-width="192" data-href="http://www.facebook.com/morningfatty" class="fb-like-box"></div>

I went to https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box/ and tried your link http://www.facebook.com/morningfatty and lo-and-behold the like box didn't display there.

I tried going directly to http://www.facebook.com/morningfatty and it redirected me to http://www.facebook.com/MorningFatty. I noticed the change of case in the name. So I went back and tried http://www.facebook.com/MorningFatty in the like-box and it worked!!.

I believe that you page will work once you update the casing on the url. :)
