When in a FB app I want to press an html button and exit the app and go to the main FB page.
It's like a redirect. I tried the following:
<form name="quit" action="redirectMainPage.php">
<button class="quit" type="submit">Quit</button>
</form>
and in the redirectMainPage.php there is:
<?php
header('Location: https://www.facebook.com') ;
?>
When I do this, I stay in a blank page in my own app: https://apps.facebook.com/my_app/
I think this is fairly easy to do, but I'm stuck on this for a while and already out of ideas.
You need to redirect the entire page (outer Facebook frame and all) by outputting a script:
<script>top.location.href='https://facebook.com/';</script>
