Hey warriors!

Say I have a tab in my facebook fan page titled "Locations"

I have over 75 locations around the country. I have them labeled as such

Florida
  • Sarasota
  • Tampa
  • Winter Park
  • Etc.
With all the locations, this particular page gets very very lllonnnnggg. What can I do on this page to make it much shorter using FBML or anything?

I didn't know if there could be some kinda script or dropdown I could use so the page can be much shorter.

Please help!

    Maybe you could have the different regions of the world and have a drop down menu for each That would tidy things up a bit

    Hello!

    I have an idea.

    There is this viral FBML script that i sell on facebook. (dont worry you wont need to buy it for what i am about to tell u) but if you go to it and look at it, you will understand what i am saying.

    Viral Fan Page Scripts | Facebook

    ok so here is there is a technique you can use to show and hide parts of the page when clicked. my idea is you could have like a link for each state and then when you click the state the locations would appear under it like a dropdown fashion.

    in the fbml script i showed you, it hides at the same time that is shows the next step so you can kinda see.

    here's what you would do though:

    <a href="#" clicktoshow="step1" >LINK </a>


    and then show the "step1" content like this:

    <div id="step1">Step 1 content goes here. </div>


    hope this helps!
    Jason

    Hmm, FBML I don't think is intended to be a whole webpage on facebook itself. I personally would just create perhaps 2 page. A welcome page with links to your own site and a list of the 75 pages you wanted and another lead capture or information page. This way your page isn't flooded also this way you won't be spending hundreds or thousands creating pages.

    It's not only very long it's very costly. Why not spend that money on your own site instead.
