can't get on facebook
 

hi all,
using up-to-date diablo software and my n800, i can't get to the facebook website. i am prompted to download a file, and can't see the page whether or not i download it. i tried clearing my cash with no success. is anyone else having this problem? thanks

I'm certain I havn't updated my N800, it must be some change at facebook.

i'm having the same problem. php is a ubiquitous web page format (e.g. these forum pages), so i don't understand why it's doing that. it prompts you to download home.php from m.facebook.com (!) so it looks like facebook is doing a browser/agent check and redirecting us to the cell-phone-ized version of the website. wtf?

i haven't tried fennec or iceweasel. anyone else?

well, i got to my page by googling 'mobile facebook' because i suspected that the site was trying ro force me to load a mobile version that wasn't working. i clicked the sign in link and was sent to some address with 'iphone' in it. then i clicked the 'view normal facebook site' (or something like that) link. i hope i don't have to do this every time.

Re: can't get on facebook
 

ok. another solution. use http://iphone.facebook.com/
it's really fast.

or try User Agent Switcher. it might solve similar problems on other websites, too.

Re: can't get on facebook
 

stay well away from user agent switcher as it will nuke your default agent string!

and it worries me that it took the likes of apple for the websites to jump on the custom page bandwagon...

?

that's how it works. anyway, no worries. the default agent string can be found here.
