Isn't there a pure API you can use for that, perhaps tied to Facebook
Connect or some such? Instead of trying to use a WebView for this?

That would suggest that Facebook is not getting all the data it thinks
it should.

Other than both being affiliated with Google and having some WebKit
plumbing, Chrome and WebView are not terribly similar.

Bear in mind that HTTP POST operations may not necessarily work as you
may be expecting. I do not know if shouldOverrideUrlLoading() is invoked
for form POSTs (I have comments from one book subscriber to suggest it
does not) and, even if it does, it would appear the form data would be
lost in the call to loadUrl().
Do you know if the affected page is using an HTTP POST form to try to
move to the page, where it does not work?
