How to Add an HTML Box to the Sidebar of the Facebook Fan Page

Facebook's modular approach to its pages means that HTML-savvy users can add custom widgets to their pages as needed. This keeps the overall page clean and free of clutter. These boxes can be added to the sides of the page's main content. HMTL and FBML (Facebook's interpretation of HTML) allow users to pull in content from other Web pages and online services. Adding an HTML box to your Facebook page is a straightforward process that can be completed in a few steps.

Instructions

1. Open your Facebook fan page.

2. Click "Edit Page."

3. Click "More Applications," located at the bottom of the page.

4. Click "Browse More," type "Static FBML" into the search bar, and then press "Enter."

5. Click the "Static FBML by Facebook" option.

6. Click "Add to my Page."

Tips & Warnings

• To add content to your new box, return to your Facebook page and click the "Edit" button under the "Static FBML" box.
