I'm trying to figure out how to close a FM Web database (using IWP in FM 7 Advanced Server) properly (using the Exit Application script) and have it close the current browser Window (or go to the different website besides the default IWP Database Homepage). Is it true that there's no way around this?

look inside the .app package for the file named iwp_home.html.

You can replace this file with one of your own choosing. There's no way that I know to close the current browser window, but you can use a simple redirect to go to another page.

Where can I find this sample home page on my machine. I have been looking and can't track it down.

In FMP 8 at least, there is a folder called "Web" in the "FileMaker 8" folder (under the "Applications" folder).

Just create the "iwp_home.html" file here and it will be used as the IWP home page. (no need to fiddle about in the .app bundle!).
