User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:2.0b12) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b12
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:2.0b12) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b12

Went from Facebook Games page to play FB  Cafe World app but got "Invalid URL" instead then went to my email with emails from FB friends but when I clicked on the gifts they sent, I got "Invalid URL" for each.  I downloaded Firefox because Windstream said that the problems I was having with Facebook apps was due to Safari but I'm getting the same problems with your browser.  Please report the issue with both Firefox & Safari to Facebook & ask them to fix the Aynga game issues!!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to Facebook on an Apple computer
2. Try to go to Cafe World app
3.Get Invalid URL message instead of functioning app.


Expected Results:  
got "Invalid  URL" instead of the Cafe World app loading & letting me play

Was told by Windstream that this was only a problem with Safari but, not so am getting the same result with Firefox.  I changed browsers because I was told this FB app was not a problem with Firefox.... ha!Ha!

Does the FB app work in Internet explorer 8?
How about Chrome?

Reporter, please can you confirm whether this issue still occurs using Firefox 4.0.1 (http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/new/) or higher, in Firefox safe mode (http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode) and/or with a clean profile (http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile). Ideally, also check using the latest nightly: http://nightly.mozilla.org/

If this issue no longer occurs, please close as "Resolved Worksforme".

It it in fact still occurs, please provide as much extra information as possible, including what versions tried, whether safe mode/new profile tested etc. Thanks! :-)
