I doubt anyone thought about annoying advertisments immediately when popup technology came around. Still, popup blocking is widespread today. IMO, it is better to err on the side of caution. Such an API can always be added later, if insurmountable obstacles to doing things the UA way appear (I see no such hindrances today, could you elaborate). > I don't really see what's wrong with having an API for fullscreen.

Users could still use UA facilities, like they do now to have a web page display in full screen mode. > As for the security issue, the 'Press Escape to exit fullscreen mode' > banner works for flash. Still, annoying. See Geolocation for an example that is handled in an unobstrusive way by browsers. Cheers, -- Nils Dagsson Moskopp // erlehmann <http://dieweltistgarnichtso.net>
