[Javascript] Open Maximized Window

Wed Oct 29 20:26:46 CST 2003

	Can't you also open an IE window in kiosk mode by adding
fullscreen=yes to the window.open parameters?  This basically takes over
the whole screen; the only way to get out of it is to alt-tab to another
application or maybe F12 (I think).  Needless to say, you need to
provide an obvious way out if you use this method.

Cheers,

Peter

As far as I know, there is no api that will open a window in maximised
mode.....I could be wrong, so if someone else knows.....??

As far as I know, all you can do is (with NN4 and IE4/5) open the window
at 
position 0,0 with dimensions equal to the screen dimensions....

Hi Alan,

I need a window maximized, not resized. I don't want the "maximize" icon
in the top right hand corner but the "resize" icon.
