    im looking to put a facebook feed onto one of the pages, but do not know if you can do this through html in flash, what i'm wondering is is there a java function for these facebook status update feeds on a website and if so can anyone help me with this problem, thanks.

    What do you mean by "feed"? Facebook has an API which can be queried with some JavaScript easily. Grab an API key and maybe a popular JS library like jQuery or Zepto if you're unfamiliar with AJAX. I recommend digging into the code though.

    Basically i want to link a news feed, so when the page on facebook has a status update the website will show the status update.

    So are you familiar with ActionScript (Adobe's scripting language for Flash)? This would seem the most straight forward way of attempting this, rather than using HTML or Java.

    Here's a really bored/boring sounding guy doing a 'Hello World' app in ActionScript using the Graph API:
