Does anyone know if Facebook Requests can be made to redirect into a Facebook Page app rather than into the Canvas app?
No, it will not redirect to any just url you give it. You should have them redirect from the Canvas app to the Facebook Page. Although that will be ugly/poor user experience. That's your only option.

I am trying to get a FB app approved for the app center and I keep getting the same message back:
on Web - Your web platform is a Facebook URL or redirects to a Facebook URL immediately after logging in. Revise your website URL, which is located in the app 'Settings' tab, under the 'Website' section. Learn more here.
I don't understand what needs to be in the Website platform as the site URL. Currently, I have this:
canvas page: https://apps.facebook.com/myapp (this page iframes blah.myapp.com which asks for FB login)
canvas URL: http://blah.myapp.com/
site URL: http://blah.myapp.com/ (which when you go to this page, you also are asked for FB login)
Any ideas what they want there?
How do you make a facebook application which you can search for on facebook and by clicking on it, it redirects you to a different website. An example is if you type in 1-800-Flowers and click on the App - it redirects you to the website http://ww30.1800flowers.com/template.do?id=template4&page=7900&conversionTag=true#flowers_facebook/offer straight away. Is this easy to do? If so, how? Thanks in advance
You can start by creating a app on Facebook and point it to a page on your website. On the page, add some JS code to pop the user out of Facebook and send them to your homepage: e.g.:
window.top.location = 'http://yourwebsite.com';
However, remember that it's against Facebook Terms to have an app simply redirect to a website. Your website must be Facebook Connected or use Facebook API in some way to enhance the user's experience.
I'm having a little problem when facebook redirect to my homepage from facebook page and from facebook oauth
For example, when I set the callback url in facebook application to be http://www.company.com/oauth/callback when user authorize my application everything works fine.
But when my app posted something on user's wall it shows the app icon nicely "http://www.company.com" However, when someone clicks on that icon it goes to http://www.company.com/oauth/callback" which causes error on my website because that redirect url doesn't have "code" parameter. How do I separate the callback url and application homepage in facebook?
Thanks a lot.

I'm building a Facebook Canvas IFrame application. The application should always have the session_key (fb_sig_session_key) parameter available. Do I need to force the user to login and "add the application"?
I am not using any libraries and am directly working with Facebook's REST web service. I believe all I need to do is redirect the user to a URL just like I am doing when requesting for extra permissions. Can anybody help me on this?
Thanks,
Sri
I found out that it was the same URL as that for authorization.
