   NOTE : THIS CODE FOR DEVLOPER NOT A BIGENERE

 PHP Code

<?php
$url = trim($_REQUEST['url']);
$url = check_url($url);

function check_url($value)
{
 $value = trim($value);
 if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) 
 {
  $value = stripslashes($value);
 }
 $value = strtr($value, array_flip

(get_html_translation_table

(HTML_ENTITIES)));
 $value = strip_tags($value);
 $value = htmlspecialchars($value);
 return $value;
}
function fetch_record($path)
{
$file = fopen($path, "r"); 
if (!$file)
{
 exit("Problem occured");
} 
$data = '';
while (!feof($file))
{
 $data .= fgets($file, 1024);
}
return $data;
}
$string = fetch_record($url);
/// fecth title
$title_regex = "/<title>(.+)<\/title>/i";
preg_match_all($title_regex, $string, $title, 

PREG_PATTERN_ORDER);
$url_title = $title[1];
 
/// fecth decription
$tags = get_meta_tags($url);
 
// fetch images
$image_regex = '/<img[^>]*'.'

src=[\"|\'](.*)[\"|\']/Ui';
preg_match_all($image_regex, $string, $img, 

PREG_PATTERN_ORDER);
$images_array = $img[1];
include "AutoEmbed.class.php";

$AE = new AutoEmbed();
$AE->parseUrl($url);
$AE->setParam('wmode','transparent');
$AE->setParam('autoplay','false');
$imglink = $AE->getImageURL();
if(empty($imglink)){
$imglink = $images_array[0];

Post on Facebook User Wall using PHP

Basically there are three PHP pages and one file in this tutorial.

config.php //Store Facebook Application Data

/inc

facebook.php

base_facebook.php

index.php //HTML Page

process.php //Post on Facebook user wall process file

Configuration

Config.php page store variables,such as Facebook Application ID,Secret ID,Return URL,etc.Change these settings with your own. Notice include_once(“inc/facebook.php”); , inc folder contains Facebook PHP SDK files, which can be downloaded from https://github.com/facebook/php-sdk, but I have already included these files in downloadable zip file.

<?php
include_once("inc/facebook.php"); //

include facebook SDK

$appId = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxx'; /

/Facebook App ID
$appSecret = 

'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'; //

 Facebook App Secret
$return_url = 'http://yoursite.com/scriptpage

/process.php';  //return url

 (url to script)
$homeurl = 'http://yoursite.com

/scriptpage/';  //return to home
$fbPermissions = 'publish_stream'; 

 //Required facebook permissions
Some Codes....

?>

Index Page

index.php file contains a message form for this demo, user is redirected to facebook authentication page, where she/he is required to authenticate and grant mainly one extended permissions publish_stream.It seems to post on page wall, application requires publish_stream.
Once user grants the permission, user is redirected back to index page, where she/he is presented with a form containing a message input box.On form submission the data is sent to process.php.

<?
include 'config.php';
if(!$fbuser){
 //Show login button for guest users
        $loginUrl = $facebook->getLoginUrl

(array('redirect_uri'=>$homeurl

,'scope'=>$fbPermissions));
        echo '<a href="'.$loginUrl.'"><img

 src="img/facebook-login.png" border="0"></a>';
}else{
//Everything looks good, show message form.
?>

Posting to Facebook User Wall

Main thing to note here in process.php is

 $post_url and $msg_body array variable, these

 two things define what you are going to post on

 Facebook user wall, for example you may want to 

automatically post notes, events, questions,

 status message, photos or videos.

The following code creates a status message :

$msg_body = array(
'message' => 'My message for wall'
);

The post a link on facebook user wall:

$msg_body = array(
'link' => 'http://www.shubhamtipstricks.com',
'message' => 'My message for wall'
);

To post a image on facebook user wall:

$msg_body = array(
'source' => '@'.realpath('img/myphoto.png'),
'message' => 'My Message for wall'
);

process.php

<?php
include_once("config.php");

if($_POST)
{
    $userMessage    = $_POST["message"];

    if(strlen($userMessage)<1)
    {
        //message is empty
        echo 'No message was entered!';
        exit();
    }

        $post_url = '/me/feed';

        /*
        // posts message on page feed
        $msg_body = array(
            'message' => $userMessage,
            'name' => 'Message Posted from 

ShubhamTipsTricks.com!',
            'caption' => "Nice stuff",
           'link' => "http://

shubhamtipstricks.com/?p=2851",
            'description' => 

'Demo of php script posting message on the facebook user wall.',
            'picture' => 

'http://shubhamtipstricks.

com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11

/Shubham-Tips-Tricks.png'
            'actions' => array( 

 array( 

'name' => 'Shubham Tips Tricks', 

'link' => 'http://www.shubhamtipstricks.com'
                                )
                            )
        );
        */

        //posts message on page statues
        $msg_body = array(
        'message' => $userMessage
        );

   Some Codes.....
