invite facebook friends to application without a popup rails - ruby-on-rails

Question

I'm making a simple application to practice learning rails and web development in general.
What I'd like to do is list facebook friends so that I can invite those that don't have the app to come use it with me.
Currently I'm following a tutorial which pops up the friends on facebook I can send the application to. However I'd like to remove the popup option and simply display on the page the facebook friends invitation list (i.e. checkbox, name, picture). How would I go about doing that?
Here is my code of Home.html.erb. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks!
<div id="friends">
#instead of the below link which creates the pop up, I'd like the page to
#simply display the facebook friends to invite
<p><%= link_to "Invite your Facebook Friends","#",:id=>"invite_fb_friends"%></p>
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script src ="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js"></script>
<script>
$(function(){
$("a#invite_fb_friends").click(function(){
FB.init({
appId:'1234567890', #<--fake appid, my code includes the my actual app id
cookie:false,
status:true
});
FB.ui({method:'apprequests',message:'<%=current_user.name%> would like to invite you to try out our app!'});
});
});
</script>
</div>

You can get a user's friends info (provided you have the permissions in the access token) via:
https://graph.facebook.com/:facebook_user_id/friends?access_token=token
You'll receive a json response of the user's friends. Simple parse the JSON code, and from their create a list of friends in the view. Use check boxes or something, compile each ID they select, and create a request
To see what the data looks like, goto: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer
and put in /me/friends
