 <div id="fb_div"> <h3>Post to your Facebook wall:</h3> <br /> <textarea id="fb_message" name="fb_message" cols="70" rows="7"></textarea> <br /> <input type="button" value="Post on Wall" onClick="post_on_wall();" /> </div> 

Step 2:

 window.fbAsyncInit = function() { FB.init({ appId : 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx', status : true, // check login status cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the session xfbml : true , // parse XFBML oauth : true // Enable oauth authentication }); }; function post_on_wall() { FB.login(function(response) { if (response.authResponse) { alert('Logged in!'); // Post message to your wall var opts = { message : document.getElementById('fb_message').value, name : 'Post Title', link : 'www.postlink.com', description : 'post description', picture : 'http://2.gravatar.com/avatar/8a13ef9d2ad87de23c6962b216f8e9f4?s=128&amp;d=mm&amp;r=G' }; FB.api('/me/feed', 'post', opts, function(response) { if (!response || response.error) { alert('Posting error occured'); } else { alert('Success - Post ID: ' + response.id); } }); } else { alert('Not logged in'); } }, { scope : 'publish_stream' }); } 

Step3:
create a div with id=”fb-root” and paste below code after this div

 <div id="fb-root"></div> 

Step4:

 (function() { var e = document.createElement('script'); // replacing with an older version until FB fixes the cancel-login bug e.src = document.location.protocol + '//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js'; //e.src = 'scripts/all.js'; e.async = true; document.getElementById('fb-root').appendChild(e); }());
