Hello. How do I open a web page automatically in full screen mode?
I am looking for a solution to open an web page automatically in full screen mode, without expecting user to press F11 or any other browser-specifc key.
I've searched a lot, but I just could not find a solution.
Is there a script or library or browser specific API available to help me achieve this?
Thanks
autofullscreen without F11 or user event

Re: autofullscreen without F11 or user event
It would probably be possible with an extension but by default this isn't available for the rather obvious risk of spoofing a browser UI in full-screen content which is a security risk.

Maybe what you are asking for is "kiosk" mode, which prevents a user from leaving the full screen browser, and is not supported by Pale Moon.
Firefox only added it a couple years ago after maybe eighteen years of requests...

Yes, thanks for the answer, that was exactly what I was looking for. Finally I have been able to do it at linux startup with a .sh file that executes palemoon in full screen with the parameters used by firefox.

Re: autofullscreen without F11 or user event
I didn't know Pale Moon supported that mode! Can you share the command?
I know Firefox disables the user's ability to use key combos to get out of that mode in a kiosk session, such as switching apps or killing the brower.
