Facebook has now been voted the no.1 invention in the last 10 years which makes it an even more valuable tool for businesses and users to interact with each other. Its become apart of our society now, in our daily language and in our lives. How often have you gone down to the pub and had a chat with a friend and at somepoint a reference to someones Facebook status is dropped in? I know I frequently get it, although I do use it a fair bit but still the point is as a modern society we are even more connected with sharing our thoughts on the web.

More and more people are creating events, pages and groups and they want to share these profiles with their friends. But the new facebook can be a a complex process when it comes to manually selecting your friends to send requests to.

Why can’t they just make a “select all” button? Fortunately there here is a nice small piece of Javascript that solves your problem:

javascript:elms=document.getElementById(‘friends’).getElementsByTagName(‘li’);for(var fid in elms){if(typeof elms[fid] === ‘object’){fs.click(elms[fid]);}}

To use, simply go to your event/group/page, click invite people and then paste the above snippet in the URL field of your browser.

Left-click the mouse in the URL field and hit Enter. This will then select all of your friends in your list and then you can click the “Invite” or “Send” button on the Facebook page to send the invites.

Easy peasy lemon squeezy. And it saves a lot of time manually clicking each friend.
