The tag must be a child of either fb:dashboard or fb:subtitle.

[edit] Attributes

Required	Name	Type	Description
required	href	string	The URL for the link. The URL must be a canvas page. For example, href="http://apps.facebook.com/<appname>/<filename>.php".
optional	title	string	Specifies the text to display as a tool tip for this link. (seems to do nothing at the moment)
	onclick	string	Call a FBJS function

[edit] Examples

<fb:dashboard> <fb:action href="new.php">Create a new photo album</fb:action> </fb:dashboard>

<fb:dashboard> <fb:action href="new.php">Create a new photo album</fb:action> <fb:action href="you.php">Photos of You</fb:action> </fb:dashboard>

This article or section needs expansion

[edit] Notes

• The link appears in the top left of the fb:dashboard element and the top right of the fb:subtitle element.
• You cannot use FBJS onclick, since you cannot have the href attribute set to # or javascript:. You can use the onclick attribute: use any absolute URL in the href and make sure onclick returns false to prevent the link from being followed.
