Q: Facebook fan page link not working from w/in ePUB on iPad

We have a link to a specific Facebook fan page in an ePUB. The link works perfectly everywhere except from within the ePUB (using an iPad). All the other links in the ePUB work correctly (Twitter, WordPress, etc.). But when we click on the Facebook link from w/in the ebook, it takes the user to the generic Facebook news feed, not the specific fan page as specified in the URL. Is there a known issue with Facebook—>ePUB—>iPad? Any workarounds? Any tips/advice much appreciated.

    I do not actually use ePub format, so i refer basically only to the link aspect.

    As you say other links work OK, then it would (to me) point to Facebook and how they accept links to content.

     

    It may be due to not being signed in with FB the IFs are many and varied, you could try different section to link to, or simpy contact FB support ... assuming they have a support team....who will advise.
