Getting fullscreen mode to my browser using jquery

How can I enter full screen mode using just Javascript/JQuery code? The goal is to enter fullscreen mode like when you press F11 in the browser, but then programmatically.

Download the full screen JQuery which is given into the GitHub. File downloading link [GitHub]:https://github.com/private-face/jquery.fullscreen

2.add the release folder into the footer section and also add Jquery.min.js file into the page. 3.Give an id #open is an id of button where we apply the click event on it.

<!-- On click button, where we change full screen -->
    <a data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top" id="open" data-myval="1" title="FullScreen"> </a>
<!-- Js File add into the footer-->
 <script src="<?= base_url('assets/vendors/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js') ?>"></script>
 <script src="<?= base_url('assets/release/jquery.fullscreen.min.js') ?>"></script>

 <script type="text/javascript"> 
     $(function() {   $('#open').click(function() 
      {
          var value = $('#open').attr('data-myval');
          if(value == 1 )
          {
          var values = $('#open').attr('data-myval',2);
          console.log(values);
             $('body').fullscreen();
             return false;
          }
          else
          {
             var values = $('#open').attr('data-myval',1);
             $.fullscreen.exit();
             return false;
          }       
          });
    });
 </script>

Try with window.resizeTo(x,y) method.

var  w = window.open('','', 'width=100,height=100');

w.resizeTo(w.screen.availHeight, w.screen.availWidth);

 w.focus();

This is an old question but maybe somebody could need this. I was looking for a solution for getting fullsreen mode for browser by jQuery and i've found this solution. I highly recommend Sindre Sorhus's screenfull.js plugin. Here you can get the file.

https://github.com/sindresorhus/screenfull.js

There are also how tos and demos available in the page.

Please try below code

var el = document.documentElement,
  rfs = el.requestFullscreen
    || el.webkitRequestFullScreen
    || el.mozRequestFullScreen
    || el.msRequestFullscreen 
;

rfs.call(el);

If you need JQuery to get ease of element selection, then you can do this:

var viewer = $("#parentid .classname .childelement")[0];
var rFS = viewer.mozRequestFullScreen || viewer.webkitRequestFullscreen || viewer.requestFullscreen;
    rFS.call(viewer);

If you need a plugin that supports versions of IE prior to IE11 (IE8-10), take a look at jQuery.fullscreen. IE did not support this feature natively until IE11.

In case have a button or anything else, We can use this script :

<script language="JavaScript">
function fullScreen() {
    var el = document.documentElement
        , rfs = // for newer Webkit and Firefox
               el.requestFullScreen
            || el.webkitRequestFullScreen
            || el.mozRequestFullScreen
            || el.msRequestFullScreen
    ;
    if (typeof rfs != "undefined" && rfs) {
        rfs.call(el);
    } else if (typeof window.ActiveXObject != "undefined") {
        // for Internet Explorer
        var wscript = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
        if (wscript != null) {
            wscript.SendKeys("{F11}");
        }
    }

}
// End -->

With a button. Everything is easy by <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="fullScreen();"><BUTTON></a>
But How can I load that script on pageload. That's mean that webform will be fullscreen on pageload without any click on anything.

You can activate full screen mode using vanilla JavaScript without jQuery.

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>
    <title>Full Screen Test</title>
</head>

<body id="body">
    <h1>test</h1>

    <script>
    var elem = document.getElementById("body");

    elem.onclick = function() {
        req = elem.requestFullScreen || elem.webkitRequestFullScreen || elem.mozRequestFullScreen;
        req.call(elem);
    }
    </script>
</body>

</html>

One thing that is important to note, you can only request full screen mode when a user performs an action (e.g. a click). You can't request full screen mode without a user action^[1] (e.g. on page load).

Here is a cross browser function to toggle full screen mode (as obtained from the MDN):

function toggleFullScreen() {
  if (!document.fullscreenElement &&    // alternative standard method
      !document.mozFullScreenElement && !document.webkitFullscreenElement && !document.msFullscreenElement ) {  // current working methods
    if (document.documentElement.requestFullscreen) {
      document.documentElement.requestFullscreen();
    } else if (document.documentElement.msRequestFullscreen) {
      document.documentElement.msRequestFullscreen();
    } else if (document.documentElement.mozRequestFullScreen) {
      document.documentElement.mozRequestFullScreen();
    } else if (document.documentElement.webkitRequestFullscreen) {
      document.documentElement.webkitRequestFullscreen(Element.ALLOW_KEYBOARD_INPUT);
    }
  } else {
    if (document.exitFullscreen) {
      document.exitFullscreen();
    } else if (document.msExitFullscreen) {
      document.msExitFullscreen();
    } else if (document.mozCancelFullScreen) {
      document.mozCancelFullScreen();
    } else if (document.webkitExitFullscreen) {
      document.webkitExitFullscreen();
    }
  }
}

For more information, check out the MDN page on full screen APIs.
