That's fine, I didn't expect you to check out the code at all. My point really was that I added that line a long time ago (if I could be bothered to go through the versions I could find when), so I imagine it's been redundant for quite some time.

I've not come across an album like this in a long time myself. I actually put in a comment quite a while ago in the source code of the script, I think this bit's now redundant because I can't find any albums that I can't see. (around line 35 or so).

I don't want to remove the code that handles this though in case there is some way that it is useful to someone. I don't spend a lot of time on Facebook myself so I tend to rely on my users to find problems etc. for me.

Hi everyone,

I spend lot's of hours searching for an exemple so i could try the script, but unfortunately i didn't found any example.
So my question is the next:
Is this feature still available in Facebook? I mean i used to see pictures which viewing others of the album was impossible, but now it appears that i can see all of them (without the script of course).

Cheers,
John.

No, that was my script. A brief history of that section of code; when grabbing the next page of images, I had a recurring problem with no data being returned. To combat this, I had the script try again 2 further times and then give this message if nothing is returned on either of those attempts. Generally data was returned on the first attempt. Failing that, data was almost always returned on the second attempt. If we get to a third attempt though and it still fails, then I figured that something was wrong that was stopping it loading so one should give up and try later. In this case though, Facebook had changed the headers required in the actual request to get another page of images, so I've added this in the current version and I believe it should all work fine now.

Is this feature not now working for you then?

I have seen this before, but for me it was intermittent and hasn't happened for a while, making me think that it might be Facebook.

If i click on the (view all) link in the photos of someone an error message pops up saying "The next page cannot be loaded at this time. Please refresh and try again."

Never seen this before, hope you got some time. Thanks again for a very helpful script znerp!

Hey man thanks again for a very useful script,

when I look through my friends tagged photos, the (view all photos) link appears but when i click on it (stop loading images) appears but only for a second then disappears and it does not load any of the tagged photos from the many pages which it should and normally does. this is for both profiles with profile ids and vanity ids. I uninstalled the script and reinstalled it but the same thing is happening. The (view all photos) in the albums works as well as it should but it is the tagged photos (photos of ...) that is not working.

Hopefully you can help me with this,

Thanks again,
swany28

Yeah, you were actually describing the symptom I fixed in the newest version a month or so back. Glad to be of service.

Yes many of my friends have the old style address (http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=123456789) and "(View all Photos)" text shows, but nothing happens when you click on it but people who have the vanity url nothing shows up at all. The "(View all Photos)" shows up and works perfectly in a friends album, so that part of the script is working for me.

Thanks for your help!

Could you please give more details of exactly how you are having this problem? I assume that you are navigating to a friend's page, and then clicking to see photos of them. When that page loads, the "(View all Photos)" text shows, but nothing happens when your click it (ie. it stays there and doesn't change to "Stop Loading Images")? Can you please tell me whether this is when viewing a friend with an old style facebook address (of the form http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=123456789) or a vanity url (of the form http://www.facebook.com/yourNameHere) or friends of both forms?

I had a quick look yesterday but could not seem to replicate this behaviour, so any further information would help me greatly in fixing this.

i like to view the photos in the album, but the view all photos link will literally come up for each picture and accumulate.
