Answer 1

If you do overflow:hidden then keep in mind that it will also hide the comment box that comes up in XFBML version... after user likes it. So best if you do this...

/* make the like button smaller */
.fb_edge_widget_with_comment iframe
{
    width:47px !important;
}

/* but make the span that holds the comment box larger */
span.fb_edge_comment_widget.fb_iframe_widget iframe
{
    width:401px !important;
}
