Re: [Flashcoders] full screen window
if opening a fullscreen window on a click is possible then y can't on onLoad event. It's a matter of user experience. If they've clicked a link, you can be pretty sure they wanted the popup. If you're doing it in an onLoad: 1) the user hasn't asked for it 2) it could be used to mislead the user (imagine opening a fullscreen window which looked exactly like a maximised browser, but every click redirected to evil spyware... it has been done, apparently). This is why the security restrictions are in place. h.

RE: [Flashcoders] full screen window
I'll tell you the exact scenario I'm facing: I'm making a course in flash MX which has to be uploaded on Client's LMS. The course needs to be compatible with 800*600 screen resolution, which we have achieved. but the client can't see the course completely coz the toolbars are not hidden on the client's browser. So I'm trying to launch the course in a fullscreen. I can do this using two windows but just wanted to know if this can be done using a single window. if this is not possible then either I've to add another page which will make two popups or ask the client to F11 every time.

RE: [Flashcoders] full screen window
If I understand correctly, you want users to click on a link that then opens
up a new window that is fullscreen and closes the previous window that is
now behind.
This is what we do:
script language=Javascript
function openWindow()
{
window.open(**URL**,NewWindow,width=+screen.width+,height=+screen.he
ight+,left = 0,top =
0,fullscreen=yes,navigationbar=no,toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,stat
us=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no);
closeWindow();
}
function closeWindow()
{
window.open('','_parent','');
window.opener = window;
window.close();
}
/script
After playing around with many options, this code seems to work well for us.
Remember, fullscreen is not really fullscreen anymore. You still have some
browser chrome left behind and in IE 7 there's a bar left behind in
fullscreen that you can't remove by default. So unless you plan to scale
your content, adjust the area size of your file accordingly.

RE: [Flashcoders] full screen window
Thanx for all the replies, but I understood that I can't do wat I exactly want to i.e. opening a popup window by itself because of so called security resturictions; but wat I really don't understand is if opening a fullscreen window on a click is possible then y can't on onLoad event...i mean it doesn't make user any difference whether the window has become fullscreen because of a click or onLoad...

Then you can control the size and properties of the window as much as you like, and the user doesn't get the surprise of his/her browser opening way up unexpectedly.
