FB.ui does not work the first time. Help!

I created an app which publishes to the user's wall. The problem is, the first time the user accesses the page, the FB.ui doesn't show up. After one reload, it works perfectly.

by first time, I mean when the user gives permissions to the app, OR when he has already given permissions. In both scenarios, the problem occurs. Any ideas, people?

FB.init({
  appId  : "XXXX",
  status : true,
  xfbml  : true,
  cookie : true
});
FB.ui(
{
 method: 'stream.publish',
 message: 'test message'
      }
);
Solution

  • Comment #70 by Will Kessler at: http://bugs.developers.facebook.net/show_bug.cgi?id=12849 fixed my problem. It's a hack, but it works perfectly :) I had another bug related to this ( FB.ui does not work inside FB canvas. HELP!) , and it also was fixed using this. FB API is seriously buggy! :|
