thanks for explaining how it works.
btw, this is my profile_main:
my $profmain = qq{<div>my profile main</div>};
I haven't actually found any good example of a valid profile_main, but I figured I start with a simple div. Maybe there's some <fb> tag that's required in profile_main ?
It'd be great if I could take a look at your friend's working example
thanks
