How to select all friends when inviting to facebook events (March 15 2011 update).



Facebook keeps on changing ways to invite friends to events. This is probably a strategy to prevent event invitation floods for users.


The script to invite all your friends is the following:


javascript:elms=document.getElementsByName("checkableitems[]");for (i=0;i<elms.length;i++){if (elms[i].type="checkbox" )elms[i].click()};


How to use the script:

- Just Triple click on this script to select it.
- Copy the scipt (Ctrl + C).
- Go to the event you wish to invite all your friends.
- Click "Select guests to invite" button.
- Now scroll down to the end of your friends list in the pop-up that appeared to load them all.
- Paste the script in the address bar (Ctrl + V).
- Click enter.

Now you should wait for the process to finish. It usually takes a couple of minutes and the browser will most probably freeze in that time, so be patient...

Ive tested the script on Google chrome and internet explorer, and invited around 1200 friends simultaneously.
