A share in facebook question

[SirMarley]

Guys...

I was looking for a way to share in facebook a score a user can make playing a game...

I found this website: http://www.actionscript.org/resources/blogs/52/Facebook-and-Twitter-buttons-in-Flash-and-Flex.html so I went ahead and copied the code, modified it and placed in my actionscript...

However it shares the webpage I put in the link, but it does not put the text...and, also, what I would like it to say is something like: Can you beat my score of (count)? ...

Now, is it possible with something like this? What should I add?

Here is the code: (count is the var where I have the score made in the game)

if (espanol) addChild(botonface);

if (ingles) addChild(btnface);

btnface.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goFace);

botonface.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goFace);

function goFace(e:MouseEvent):void {

    btnface.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goFace);

    botonface.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goFace);

    socialUpdate("facebook", "Can you beat my score", "www.google.com");

}

function socialUpdate(site:String, text1:String = "",  link:String = "")

{

    var siteURL:String;

    var maxLength:Number;

    switch (site) {

        case "facebook":

        maxLength = 255;

        break;

        default:

        return;

        break;

    }

    var availableTextLength:Number = maxLength - (link.length + 1);

    if (text1.length > availableTextLength) {

        text1 = text1.substr(0, (availableTextLength - 3)) + '...';

    }  

    switch (site) {

        case "facebook":

        siteURL = "http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=" + encodeURIComponent(link) + "&t=" + encodeURIComponent(text1);

        break;

    }

    var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(siteURL);

    navigateToURL(urlRequest, "_blank");

}

This isn't really a Flash question but here's an example on SO that's probably best usage IMHO:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6952807/facebook-share-with-dynamic-text

The URL decoded structure in that answer for clarity is:

That points to a specific image and such so be sure to replace relevant content with your own. Click on the link in the answer to see what the user will see.

Consult the Facebook API for more information on share links.
