I have iframe based facebook app, I just want to do is that whenever someone hits the application url directly http://mysite.com must be redirect to my facebook canvas url for this app say http://apps.facebook.com/mysite. This seems pretty easy but unfortunately its not clicking in my mind

any help would be appreciated

EDIT

the application is in codeigniter

EDIT

htaccess

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule .* index.php/$0 [PT,L]

php_value error_reporting 7
php_flag display_errors On
php_value auto_prepend_file prepend.php

say my domain is 

http://abc.com/mysitefolder

my facebook app link is 

http://apps.facebook.com/myappname

please consider http and https conversion too

also guyz one suggestion too as you see am using prepend in htaccess its just to get the user timezone for some date time stuff, is this fine am using it this way? the file actually sets a cookie for a user on very first visit to the site per session

Best Regards
Junaid

    Any canvas page for an app that comes from Facebook will have $_REQUEST['signed_request'] defined. You could check for the existence of this request variable and if it is not set, redirect to Facebook.
