How can I add description to Facebook like button using JavaScript?

Question

Related to this article, I coded a simple Facebook like link as:

<a href="JavaScript:window.open('http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http://jsfiddle.net','','width=657,height=400,scrollbars=1')">Like</a>

How can I add a personal description?

You can't do that using sharer.php anymore.

Using the feed dialog is the easiest alternative, but for more features I'd advise using their custom OG stories API.

Just add the required Open Graph tags to the link you want to share:

That being said, if you want to add a "message", that´s not possible at all and not allowed anyway. The message always must be 100% user generated and prefilling is not allowed.
