We have already told you about  fixing Facebook Connect and other XFBML not showing up in Internet Explorer [IE7, IE8, IE9].  In this article we will tell you about a quick fix that will help you to show Facebook Like Button on Microsoft Internet Explorer (all versions).

In case you have setup Facebook Like buttons for a website it is possible that these buttons may not show up or are not visible in Internet Explorer but are very well visible in browsers like Firefox and Google Chrome. To fix this all you need to do is just add these two xmlns attributes to your page's main html tag:

xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml"

xmlns:og="http://opengraphprotocol.org/schema/"

After adding this attribute to the HTML tag your, html tag - fully completed should look like this:

<html xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml" xmlns:og="http://opengraphprotocol.org/schema/">
.
.

.
</html>

We also have a solution for you in case you are unable to show Facebook Connect buttons or other xfbml content on your page in Internet Explorer whereas they show perfectly in Chrome and Firefox.
