 Hey all,

 I'm wondering if there is a way to put your browser in fullscreen mode
 (same as pressing F11) via Javascript. My searching has turned up some
 scripts for opening new windows in fullscreen, but not for the current
 window. It's looking like something you can't do (probably for security
 reasons, to stop ppl hijacking the browser).

 thanks in advance,
 Stephen

 Yeah, I've seen lots of posts like this where it opens a new window in full
 screen. (Not tested if that works or not) but I need to toggle the current
 browser window (preferably as if the user pressed F11). I'll be calling the
 Javascript from a Silverlight app via HTML Bridge.

 I don't think what I want is possible for security reasons.

One of the posters on Jonathan's link says that it's specifically
disabled, under firefox, unless you have the right permissions.

Without researching, I'd generally consider it not possible as well
(and also in poor taste, as, at least I, never want an existing window
deciding what is best for me, but it may not be relevant if it's for
an internal app, etc).

[OT] Powershell Users Group in Sydney this Thursday - Community Event Plug

2010-02-15 Thread Nick Wienholt
Hi All,

 

The good folk from the Powershell Users Group are in Sydney this Thursday
with a presentation from Powershell MVP and author Don Jones.  The meeting
is out at Microsoft's North Ryde office from 17:30-19:00, with full details
on the night located on their web site
http://www.psugau.org/pages/what.html .  The content is more IT Pro
targeted than Dev, but they'll be covering plenty of stuff of interest.

 

They also have a Live Meeting feed for those who can't be there in person.

 

Nick
