Here's what I do....Create the share using normal anchor that calls this javascript function (spacing or brackets or something might be off):

FB.ui(
        {

            display:'iframe',
            method: 'stream.publish',
            caption: 'Put something here',
            description: 'put something here',
            name: 'foo',
            link: 'http://www.foo.com',
            picture: 'http://fo.com/img.gif'

        },
        function (response) {
            if (response && response.post_id) {
            //this means the post was completed....response.post_id is the FB post ID

            $.ajax({
                var URL = '/pages/ajax_InsertUserFacebookPost.aspx?';
                URL += 'facebookpostid=' + response.post_id;
                    type: "GET",
                    url: URL,
                    data: "{}",
                    contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
                    dataType: "json",
                    async: true
                });


            } else {
                //alert('Post was not published.');
            }
        }
        );
