Howdy,

Is it possible to dispaly a web page fullscreen as if you had pressed f11? In chrome this gets rid of tool bars and everything. I'm using jQuery but I haven't been able to find info iff this is even possible.

Thanks for any help.

+7  A: 

The real full screen behavior (F11) is not possible through javascript.

I also think that browsers should never allow access to such behavior because some really bad things could happen. Imagine malicous sites impersonating the user's desktop or something like that. Nasty.

How about if by pressing a javascript linked button a new window would open in full-screen (or displaying address and scroll bars), and just copy the original's page link?
