The Facebook like mods topic on sm.org has the portal block code for what you require.

sorry i dint get that....

When I look at your page, I see the "Facebook Like Box"
 
Do you have this working now?
 
Did you try Brack1's suggestion to go to simplemachines.org and read the support topic for the "Facebook like" mod?
 
Since this is not a bug with SimplePortal, I am moving this topic into English Support

but it not showing properlly on pc pc? see this screenshot.

I do not know what the box is supposed to look like.
Did you get this HTML from the facebook site?
Or did you get this from the facebook like mod http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=2543?
 
Have you checked the support thread at the facebook like mod for information, as Brack1 suggested?

[Jeet Chowdhury]

i get this from here,

http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box/


and its not topic liking.

few days back that box showing properly but now its not looks properly....

[AngelinaBelle]

Thanks for telling me where you got the HTML from. Things are a lot less confusing now.
I think the issue is not with SimplePortal, but with the HTML you put in your block.
[/size]I'm guessing that you could fix the problem by going back to that Facebook page to get a new Like Box
[/size]
[/size]It looks like you asked facebook for code for a like box for http://www.facebook.com/pages/#!/MusKiL-AsHaN/194623927224023
[/size]
[/size]That box looks fine to me.  It says MusKiL-AsHaN. It looks the same when I try the code you supplied  in a different web page.
[/size]
[/size]Since I don't know anything about facebook, don't know what the box used to look like, and don't know what it looks like to you, I'm afraid I can't be much more help.

its ok angelina... the box look like the box in, askvg.com

[AngelinaBelle]

You will not be able to fix this by adjusting SimplePortal options.
Instead, you will need to understand the parameters of Facebook Like. You could learn more about this from knowledgeable users of this Facebook Like Box feature.
That said, when you see some HTML you like, you can learn a lot by looking at the HTML. The page you refer to has created its box a little differently than you have done. You can try:

Code: [Select]

<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?id=194623927224023&width=198&connections=5&stream=false&header=false&height=200" frameBorder="0" scrolling="no" style="width: 300px; height: 200px; overflow: hidden; border-top-color: currentColor; border-right-color: currentColor; border-bottom-color: currentColor; border-left-color: currentColor; border-top-width: medium; border-right-width: medium; border-bottom-width: medium; border-left-width: medium; border-top-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none;"></iframe>

thanks angelina its worked... yoh yoh you are gr8...

but a little problem... it having a long width scroll... plz take a look....

[AngelinaBelle]

Maybe, instead of width=300px, you could try something small enough to fit into your side bar.

[Jeet Chowdhury]

Please try that change in your facebook like box, and let us know if that fixes it.
 
As for the other topic -- my advice to you is to post support topics in the support board, so that support specialists like myself will find them more quickly 

[Jeet Chowdhury]

i have changed that value to 180 now the box looking cool... thank you....

[AngelinaBelle]

Glad to help!
