auth.statusChange doesn't fire during FB.init if the user isn't logged in to facebook

Answer 1

My best solution for this was to set status to 'false' in the fb.init options, then to explicitly call getloginstatus separately.

IF get loginstatus came back as unknown (i.e. logged out), I subscribed to the status change event, as well as doing the usual of displaying the login button. Then when the user logs in, status change fires as expected.
