  • You will need to give more details in your post fella. Just asking for what you need is not how SO works. Show us what you have done and then ask questions when you are stuck with your code. – Siddharth Lele Nov 15 '12 at 11:27
  • Uhhh. Not in a comment. Edit your post and add the code there. – Siddharth Lele Nov 15 '12 at 11:41
  • See both of this links. Its very good Example to learn for beginners . - http://www.android10.org/index.php/articleslibraries/290-facebook-integration-in-your-android-application - http://www.integratingstuff.com/2010/10/14/integrating-facebook-into-an-android-application/ – Chintan Khetiya Nov 15 '12 at 11:18
  • @user1597094: Before being sarcastic or even rude for that matter, you might consider reading the FAQ's on how to ask a good question. Calling my second comment a _replay_ shows you in bad light. Not me mate. – Siddharth Lele Nov 15 '12 at 12:13

  Intent shareIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
  shareIntent.setType("text/plain");
  shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "URLyouWantToShare");
  startActivity(Intent.createChooser(shareIntent, "Share..."));

Use the ACTION_SEND Intent, add the URL you want to share. User will be given a selection of apps to accept the share intent such as facebook etc.

  • Im unaware of any url type method to share data to facebook that could be simply opened in a browser, with this method you will only see choices that share an Intent for ACTION_SEND – James Kidd Dec 13 '12 at 02:57
