I would like to deep link directly to a GWT app page within a Facebook iFrame Canvas.
The first part is simple using GWT's History token with URLs like:
http://www.example.com/MyApp/#page1
which would open page1 within my app.
Facebook Apps use an application url like:
http://apps.facebook.com/myAppName
which frames my Canvas Callback URL
http://www.example.com/MyApp/
Is there a way to specify a canvas callback url (or bookmark url) which will take the user to a specific page rather than the index page?
Why? you may ask. Besides all the benefits of deep links...
I want the "Go To Application" url to take users to an index page w/ marketing material (the canvas callback url)
I want the "Bookmark URL" to take (likely returning) users to a login page and bypass downloading the marketing content (and that huge SWF file).
