Question

I need to post the image using the image url in my facebook app is that possible? How to post image to Facebook on button click? I have stored imageUrl in variable image and the facebook URL in the variable shareUrl, 

following is the complete facebook URL : 
"https://www.facebook.com/dialog/feed?app_id=843228839026054&caption=example.com&display=popup&redirect_uri="+encodeURIComponent("http://www.facebook.com/")+"&name=%title%&description=%desc%&picture=%image%".

<html>
<head>
<script>

var doShare = function(title, description)
{
    if(title && description)
    {
        image="http://www.sxc.hu/assets/182945/1829445627/small-flowers-1019552-m.jpg";

        /* for readability i store the url like this, above this code u can find
          the complete facebook url. */

        shareUrl = "https://www.facebook.com/dialog/feed?";
        shareUrl += "app_id=843228839026054&caption=example.com&display=popup&";
        shareUrl += "redirect_uri="+encodeURIComponent("http://www.facebook.com/");
        shareUrl += "&name=%title%&description=%desc%&picture=%image%";

        var url = shareUrl.replace(/%title%/g, encodeURIComponent(title));
        url = url.replace(/%desc%/g, encodeURIComponent(description));
        url = url.replace(/%image%/g, encodeURIComponent(image));
        var isOpen = window.open(url);
        if(!isOpen)
        {
          console.log('Please turn off "Block pop up" setting to proceed further.');
        }
    }
};

</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id='share'>
    <input type='button' onclick ='doShare("TITLE","DESCRIPTION")'>Share</input>
</div>
</body>
</html>
