Q:

inserting facebook app users details to database

i'm trying to insert user details, who authorize the app, into the database, but nothing seems to be happening. the data is null and no record is being inserted. is there something wrong with the code?
function insertUser($user_id,$sk,$conn)
{

    //$info = $facebook->api_client->users_getInfo($user_id, 'first_name, last_name', 'name', 'sex');
    $info = $facebook->api_client->fql_query("SELECT uid, first_name, last_name, name, sex FROM user WHERE uid = $user_id");

    for ($i=0; $i < count($info); $i++) {
    $record = $info[$i]; 
    $first_name=$record['first_name'];
    $last_name=$record['last_name'];
    $full_name=$record['name'];
    $gender=$record['sex'];

    }

    $data= mysql_query("select uid from users where uid='{$user_id}'",$conn);
    if(mysql_num_rows($data)==0)
    {
        $sql = "INSERT INTO users (uid,sessionkey, active, fname, lname, full_name, gender) VALUES('{$user_id}','{$sk}','1', '{$first_name}', '{$last_name}', '{$full_name}', '{$gender}')";
        mysql_query($sql,$conn);
        return true;
    }
    return false;
}

A:

called the install code manually, rather than leave it upon facebook to ping the url.
