UPDATE 2: Still a lot of visitors come to my site, so I decided to update the code to a newer one which works as of November 2011. It’s worth to mention that executing Javascript directly in the URL field is not supported for all browsers. It should work in Google Chrome, there is now even an extension for this feature called Facebook Super Select All. Thanks for the contribution in the comments!
UPDATE 1: After this post was originally written, Facebook came up with a solution to create lists of friends. You can create several lists, based on your own personal criterias, and add your friends to different lists, which you then can send event or page invitations to. I would rather recommend using this solution provided by Facebook, so that you don’t send information which might not apply to all of your friends.
To create a list, go to your Account settings, choose Edit Friends and Create new list. After you’ve created new lists you have an option to filter friends based on list names when you’re inviting friends to events or pages.
The newly redesigned Facebook has led inviting members to an event/group/page to an even more complex process. Why can’t they just make a “select all” button? Initially I got tired of clicking several hundred times on all the pictures to invite people to my event, so I came up with this small piece of Javascript:
Go to your event/group/page, click invite people and then paste this snippet in the URL field of your browser.
Left-click the mouse in the URL field and hit Enter. Your invitations will not be sent yet, but all your friends will be selected. Click the “Invite” or “Send” button on the Facebook page to finally send the invites.
Soi! Done in one go

If someone could help me I got problem with new goups type @ fb.com they made different things in it and now I can’t invite all friends at once.

Hi, this doesn’t seem to work when suggesting your own fan page to friends. Has FB changed this? Or should it still work?
Cheers
January 11th, 2011 at 11 January, 2011
Ok so you got alot of praise and rightly so, it worked for me once so i know it works… but like the last few comments ive seen, it doesnt work anymore.
If you want to be lord script boy again, make another code and fix it… I cant see here all day clicking shit anymore, and seen as though facebook doesnt have a select all button, its up to you to save the world now.
January 12th, 2011 at 12 January, 2011

It doesn’t work any more
(((((((
I have 995 people and it no longer works, but it worked before. What could be the problem?
I work on a new laptop. Could it be, that I have no Java updates?
January 14th, 2011 at 14 January, 2011

I realised that you can’t select all anymore and with 1000 contact it’s a serious hassle…
Used your code and hey presto!!!
HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!!

The javascript doesn’t seem to work anymore now that Facebook made the changes to its event inviting process, with the checkboxes. Any ideas?

Poor ballsack – I bet he says that to his fist each night when it slips off and clocks him in the nose.

It only selects the 9 friends that are available. Not everybody in your friend’s list.
January 26th, 2011 at 26 January, 2011
I fully expected to feel like an asshole after I tried this and it didn’t work but it did! Thanks!
