Facebook Markup Language - FBML
Facebook has provided a bunch of built in tags that will render dynamic
data inside your application. All you have to do is include the tags
with the correct parameters. In the example above the
fb:name tag is used to generate the user’s name on the canvas page. fb:name has a couple of parameters, one of which is
uid.
In the example above we set uid = $fb_user which is the unique ID of
the current user. There are lots of FBML tags you can use, check them
