How can I display the users profile pic using the facebook graph api?

Question

I would like to display the users profile picture inside of my applications canvas page, is there a way to do that using the graph api?

I know I can do it using FBML

Answer 1

One very important thing is that like other Graph API request, you won't get the JSON data in response, rather the call returns a HTTP REDIRECT to the URL of the profile pic. So, if you want to fetch the URL, you either need to read the response HTTP header or you can use FQLs.
