I want to have a "exit" button which opens a URL and then does the Exit Application script (so that the session is ended).

OpenURL works.

Exit Application works.

But if I have them both in the same script, they fail.

Anyone got this working?

FMSA 8v2 under OSX 10.4.4 / Safari, popup blocker off.

If you open a URL, then you've left the application. What you need to do instead is do an exit application script, then customize your IWP home page to do a redirect to the URL that you need to go to.

Thanks! That's one work-around, for sure.

But doesn't it seem a little strange that IWP can't properly open a URL in the same window. That is just about the most basic feature of HTML one could imagine...

I just went to

http://www.filemaker.com/company/feature_request.html

and put in a request to be able to Exit and go to a specific URL without opening a new window, we should all do the same.

John,

But the other issue is, what happends if the user timesout? you dont want that user to go to the same page as users that complete a process, any ideas for a work around for that? any javascript code?
