Error parsing XML with facebook button

Question

I'm getting error parsing xml on line (error). I have my namespace for android and facebook declared so I don't know why...

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <RelativeLayout 
        xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        xmlns:facebook="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        >  

(error) <com.facebook.widget.LoginButton 
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginTop="500dp"
        facebook:confirm_logout="false"
        android:id="@+id/login_button"
        facebook:fetch_user_info="true"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
                    />
    </RelativeLayout>

did you include the facebook jar file and add it to your build path? — JoxTraex, Mar 01 '13 at 04:57
I already have facebooksdk set as a project that is a library, do i still need to add it to my build path ? — Jake, Mar 01 '13 at 05:04
add facebook sdk as library project. also check their is any error while setting facebook sdk as library. alos make sure that the your facebook sdk project is open or not in eclipse — Kirit Vaghela, Mar 01 '13 at 05:16
@Jake yes, you MUST include it into your build path so that when it builds the binaries in the build process it will include those compiled jar files from the facebook SDK and THEN you can use those widgets (If they exist and are exposed). — JoxTraex, Mar 03 '13 at 04:34
@Jake Could please help me solving this issue? I have tried every discussed solution for this error. But I am not able to solve. Any help is appreciated!! — Shikha Shah, Sep 11 '13 at 14:04

You can add this prefix tag: xmlns:facebook="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

There may be some other solutions, but I recommend you must check this check box

enter image description here

while importing Facebook SDK library project into workspace, I also was facing such a problem at least this worked for me, hope will work for you as well!

You should add this in your facebook button:

<com.facebook.widget.LoginButton 
     xmlns:fb="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
     android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        .....
