Facebook API - post on page user 'likes'

using facebooks api... how do you post to a page a user likes on that users behalf... for example I have a user that likes a certain page. They can log into my app and make a post on that pages wall via my app instead of logging into facebook to do it.

If the user grants your app the publish_stream permission then you can post on his behalf on pages he likes (or pages that don't require to like in order to post).

You can try it yourself with the Graph API Explorer, just go there and click the Get Access Token button, then go to Extended Permissions tab, select "publish_stream" and confirm.

Then in the address field put a page you like, let's say southpark/feed and submit, you should see the feed of that page. Now, change the method to the left of the address field to POST and click the Add Field link and write in the name "message", enter a value and submit, you should get an id of the post as a result.
