New Login Process for Facebook Connect

Facebook changed the login process for Facebook Connect when users are already logged into Facebook, the social-networking site announced on its Developers Blog.

Rather than having the login appear in an IFrame lightbox within the browser window, the program now opens a separate browser window, with an address bar, Naitik Shah, an engineer on the Facebook Platform team, posted on the blog.

In order to make a more consistent and secure user experience when connecting accounts, we’re changing the behavior of the dialog when a user connects accounts between your site and Facebook when the user is already logged in to Facebook.
