I have an issue with the FB like button.

In a web view inside our iOS and Android apps, when the FB like button is pressed and you are not logged in, instead of displaying a login modal as it has previously it just disappears.

This happens for the iframe and XFBML versions.

I can also reproduce this when clicking the like button in the mobile browser when viewing https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/.

I've logged this with FB Dev but thought I'd try here as well.

Using the debug tool didn't work for me. I've tried using the HTML 5 and FBXML version of the Like button code to no avail. If I'm logged in to FB I see the button, if not, the button is rendered to the page with a width and height of 0. Did you ever solve the issue? –  creativetim Feb 8 '13 at 16:09

I had the same problem.... You have to use this tool: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug

Enter the url you want to add like button, this will clear facebook cache, and the like button will work properly.
