    How can I update my facebook status with php? Is it possble? Does facebook have som sort of api for this? Because it would be a pain in the ass, to manually find out all the forms, tokens etc.

    That seemed very complicated. What I want to make, is a php tool, where one can input the username, password, and the message you want your status to be.

    So I want many different facebook users to be able to use this tool.

    Is this possible?

    Their API is designed in such a way that you as a 3rd party product provider could not obtain the user's username and password.

    Mhm okay. My idea is to make a php script, which you can upload to your own website, or use it locally on your pc.

    But this is not possible?

    I know you can do it with twitter's API very easily , but I haven't yet seem something of the sort for facebook other than facebook's own app on the iphone/ipod.
