require('php-sdk/src/facebook.php');
$facebook = new Facebook(array(
	'appId' => '000000000', // put appID here - see Create section
	'secret' => '0000c000c000c000c', //put your secret key here - see Create section

  1. What if i have to get the number of like from a page that is not on Facebook.

    For eg. I have a like button for a page on my website and i want to grab the number of likes of that page. How can that be done?
