this site supports a self contained facebook login which I have not been
able to find anywhere. This one also, but does not open right now -

http://www.meebo.com/

I'm not sure whether they have private access to facebook authentication
service or they could send the credentials entered by the user to their own
server and  construct a dummy html page on the server side and then send it
to facebook. You might need to wrap an html component around this page as a
quick approach.

 Hi Valdhor. I did finally manage to get this done. My app now has the
 capability to display a users Twitter feed and post a tweet to a twitter
 feed a long as they enteer a valid username and password.

 I'm now looking for good examples of using Facebook connect to do the
 following:-

 - View a user's statuses
 - View all a users albums and photos
 - Allow a user to post a new status to Facebook
 - All a user to upload a new photo to a specific album

 What I really want is to be able to do all of the above WITHOUT the user
 being taken to the 'Allow Access' window of Facebook which opens up in a new
 instance of Explorer, the reason for this being that I want my app to be
 entirely self contained or if there is no way around this I'd like to have
 it so the allow access window opens up in a html component within my
 application. Is this possible would you know?

   I've found tonnes of examples of displaying twitter feeds within

Sorry, no idea.

I haven't had to add that to any applications I've built.
