Hi Gary,
maybe we need to settle some terminology first.
When Org-mode exports, is is actually producing the product in a
buffer. So the buffer is there first. When it is complete, the
buffer is written to a file, but stays in Emacs - so we now have a
buffer visiting the file on the disk.
So if you are exporting in order to produce the file, you may not want
to keep the buffer. That is a perfectly reasonable request. Of
course, sometimes you might want to look at the buffer - in that case
you'd want to keep it.
So there is no general solution for this.
The variable org-export-kill-product-buffer-when-displayed has the
following effect: Some export commands do not only produce the export
file, but immediately display it with an appropriate viewer. For
example, `C-c C-e b' should open your browser.
And `C-c C-e d' should produce a PDF file and open it with a PDF
viewer (not sure if this did work in the quite old version of Org-mode
you have).
If immediate opening does not work, something funny if going on. This
should work.

(setq org-export-kill-product-buffer-when-displayed t)
will do this when the exported file is shown immediately, so
the buffer will be removed during `C-c C-e b',
Aha!
Err... what exactly does "browse immediately" mean? I am guessing it
uses the browse-url-browser-function to open the produced page in a
browser? In my case that points to Firefox, and indeed I can `C-c C-o'
on a link in a .org file and it opens nicely. Nothing browser-like
happens if I `C-c C-e b', however...
but not during `C-c C-e h'
I guess we could have a variable that always removes the buffer.....
*choke*
Well, not for me. I mean, I *do* want to export and then look at the
result, hence I don't want the "product buffer" open as well. I just
wasn't aware of this connection between "browse immediately" and
killing the product buffer. It doesn't seem that
org-export-kill-product-buffer-when-displayed exists in the version I
have, however :-(
