facebook authentication

Question

I am trying to authenticate my website (not hosted anywhere but on my desktop) using oauth. I am looking to retrieve access_token I registered my app with FB to get the appid. In the redirect uri I am using https://www.facebook.com/connect/login_success.html.

Problem is .. when the child window authenticates and redirects to a success, how do I control that from the parent window and retrieve the access token from the child window.

You can only do client side authentication on you local pc. If you want to do server side authentication you will need a redirect uri which points to your website.
