Firstly, are you sure facebook is hitting the wrong URL, or is your site redirecting to http://dev.domainname.com/index/testApplication123/? Set up an HTTP sniffer and follow the authentication process to confirm. I’m pretty certain the facebook site just does a javascript redirect back to yours with an extra query string.

From what I remember with facebook is you set up a default redirect URL for your app, but you can also override it at the time a user is verifying their account when you request the access tokens.
Do you know which you are doing?

Thanks!

Thanks Brad,

I delved into the library I am using and they use the cgi to get the url, once I fixed that it all works a sort of treat. Except that the authentication to go to ends up on the server and not as the app, so if anyone knows how that is supposed to work I would love to hear it. If I try to push the next url as apps/facebook.com/testApplication123 I get an error about the url not being right.
