    When using this plugin and the facebook like button, just loading a page shows this error in the Javascript console on Chrome browser:

    Uncaught SecurityError: Blocked a frame with origin “http://www.facebook.com” from accessing a frame with origin “http://www.example.com”. Protocols, domains, and ports must match.

    This is related the the facebook like button, most probably.
    Seems like this may be a Facebook script problem. The “like” action seems to work anyway, but would be nice if this error could be avoided.

    I noticed this plugin may not be creating the right html – it is missing the http? It generates this:

    <div class=”really_simple_share_facebook_like” style=”width:100px;”><iframe src=”//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.example.com

    Note the src=”//www.facebook.com” which seems wrong (though it will work, since http is default protocol?)

    Finally got a better error message from the Javascript console!

    This error was due to a Chrome Extension – “Allow Right Click”.

    So the code in this plugin is all fine. Disabling the bad extension made the error go away.
