How to have new Safari windows open in full screen?

Hello,
I am wondering if it is possible to have new Safari windows take up the full screen. For example, if I click on a link that opens a new window, I would like that new window to take on the fully maximized setting of the window it came from. So even if the website code says the window has to be 50% screen real estate, I would like to be 100% every time automatically.
Thanks.

Welcome to the forums!
Yet another great thing that Glims can do!
If you want to fix your Google search to a specific Google location, I recommend that you download and install the free plug-in Glims:
http://www.machangout.com/
which not only does that but much more equally useful stuff! (Such as automatically deleting Flash cookies, enabling Safari to run full-screen, and more.)
(It adds items to Safari Preferences).
Not only does it already list a number of search engines and regions, but you can also add any other search engine not already listed in Glims by using the method described here:
http://www.machangout.com/tutorials/addsearchengine
Just enter the name you give the search engine in the name field, and the URL for it in the Query URL field.
When you have it, the setting is in Glims Preferences/General

    Mountain Lion is set up to close windows when you quit a program instead of saving them. To change this, put Safari in full-screen mode, move the cursor to the top, open Safari menu while holding Option key and close Safari from the menu.
    If you want to do it automatically with all programmes, open System Preferences > General, and deactivate "Close windows when quitting an application"

    Does anyone no how to accomplish closing safarie window 1 at a time or even all at once?

    If you have iOS 5+ with the tabbed browsing then you can close the 'active' tab by tapping the 'x' on the left of the tab (you can't close the last tab).
    If you have iOS 4 or below then tap the icon of the two squares to open the thumbnail/page view and you can close them from there

  • Safari Window Set to Full Screen

    Hi I have a quick question about Safari Windows.
    I recently selected a browser window and dragged my mouse to the menu bar. My macbook automatically resized the browser to make it full screen.
    I can't get this to work anymore. Any suggestions?
    I know the keyboard shortcut, and want to see how to restore or set this new option.
    Thanks!

    Full screen arrows in up right corner.
    or Safari>View>Full Screen
    or short cut keys control commnd F  which works in most Mac apps

  • How do I make a window expand to full screen?

    I am using Dreamweaver MX 2004 with Windows XP.
    My question is a page from my homepage www.artmanphoto.com
    > Portfolio > Business Portraits then click on the Gallery
    button. When my web designer built my site there was only two
    business portraits and when you clicked on the Gallery button the
    window was smaller and did not expand to a full screen display.
    Tonight I added a third portrait and the window is still smaller
    than the full screen display so you have to use the horizontal
    scroll bar to view all three images or you can click on the Expand
    button in the upper right corner of the screen to make the window
    display full screen. I thought that when I added the third portrait
    the and it was displayed on my website that the window would expand
    to show all three portraits but it didn't.
    Is there a way that I can change something to make the window
    with the three business portraits open to full screen when you
    click on the Gallery button?
    Thanks very much for your help!

    No. Modern browsers are designed to protect users from that
    kind of
    manipulation. Typically, web users don't want their browsers
    windows
    manipulated.

  • Have Pinned site shortcut open in full screen mode (not maximized)

    Hello.  I'm currently in the testing phases of migrating all of our users from a locally installed client version of their email to a web version of their email.  I'd really like the webmail version to look more like an application than a website. 
    Is there any way to make the pinned site shortcut (not all sites) open in full screen mode when double clicked?  Another wish list item would be for the URL field to be removed from it as well.  Chrome provides this functionality by making a site
    into an application, but then any link you click on within your email opens up in Chrome and thats a deal breaker for me.  Does anyone know if this is possible in internet explorer 9?  Thanks in advance

    any way to make the pinned site shortcut (not all sites) open in full screen mode when double clicked?
    I think it does which is a surprise.  E.g. if you last closed an IE window in Fullscreen mode it can open up again in Fullscreen mode.  This may be in response to user complaints about Maximized mode which would still be a problem because that
    is the OS doing.  However, even there it has always been possible to open a window from a shortcut in Maximized mode.  The problem is that any windows spawned from that one will have the original window's Normal mode attributes in terms of size and
    shape.

  • Gallery Images: How to make clear PNG's open in full screen with a white background?

    Hi,
    So in the Life on Earth textbook, there is an image of an ant that has no background, so when you pick it up, you can see the text below without the standard "white box" around it.
    I've scorwed the internet looking for answers but couldn't find any.
    Please see the photos snapped from my phone of this:
    Unfortunately... When I try to achive this, my images open on a black background.
    I can achive the pick up.
    Would really appreicate the help. Thanks...

    Well, if I put a white background in my image, it opens in full screen with a white background. But has a white square when I pick it up:
    This is with a 2028 x 1496 image same as above, just no background - came out of Illustrator - and this has the effect I want, as the first post but still opens to full screen with a black background.
    Thanks for the help... Hope to get this one figured out!

  • How do you have 2 Safari windows open and show both pages simultaneously on the monitor

    How do you keep open 2 Safari windows and show both pages on monitor?

    While in Safari with your first window open go to the File menu and select New Window. That will open the second window on which you can navigate to your second web page. Resize both windows to fit on your display.

  • Can I setup Safari to open in full screen on launch??

    Anyone know how this can be done rather than pressing the full screen window when it launches.
    Am I missing something really obvious??
    Thanks in Advance

    You are right. But you have  to use the modifier key "option" to modify the default behavior.
    Clicking the grey double arrow icon once Safari window is reopened, serves the same purpose.
    I was answering to the question of launching Safari in Full Screen mode by default.
    Best.

  • I want to have 2 active windows open on the screen so I can click either one as needed, e.g. I want to have two e-mails open simultaneously on the screen

    The first e-mail will contain a verification code which must be entered into the second e-mail while the first e-mail is still open.

    If those emails are from different accounts then open a second Private Browsing mode window and resize both windows to make them fit next to each other if you really need to see them at the same time (it shouldn't be a problem to paste content from one tab to another tab, just hover on the tab or use "command + ~" to switch windows).
    That will allow you to login to a separate windows account.

  • How to force weblinks to open in a new Safari window

    Hi,
    This morning, I just upgraded Lion from 10.7.3 to 10.7.4, and I upgraded Safari to Version 5.1.7 (7534.57.2).  Since then, when I click on web links in messages in Mail, they seem to open in a tab in an existing Safari window, where they used to open in a new Safari window, which is what I want.  It also appears that these pages load, they are loading in an existing tab and flushing the history, so tabbed pages end up disappearing with no way to determine exactly what they once were.  My Safari tab preferences are "Open pages in tabs instead of windows:  Never", and the checkboxes below this option are both unchecked.  Any help would be much appreciated, as I usually have multiple Safari windows open, each with 2-4 tabs active, and this current behaviour is quite destructive.
    Thanks,
    Ken

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Opening a new Safari window

    Last year I downloaded a program that had a green icon that looks likes a round speedometer with "SS" on it. It is labeled "New Safari Window". When you click this, a new safari window opens. Can anyone tell me where to find this download? I have it on my imac but when I tried to transfer it to my macbook, it won't work there. Thanks

    Chris --
    Version Tracker is a great source of info like this.
    I went there and searched for "Safari".

  • How to run a safari window in the background at all times?

    Ok, so you are probably wondering why I want to do this. Allow me to explain. The website twitch.tv is a streaming service for gamers, and there is a browser plugin specifically for the site called betterttv.
    One feature of this plugin is that you will get a notification whenever someone you are following starts broadcasting, right in your notification center. But because its a browser plugin, and is specifically for this one website, it requires a safari window to be open with the website twitch.tv in order to push the notifications.
    So my question is... how can I make a browser window stay open at all times and run in the background with this website open so that I get my notifications? I had the idea that I could retain the window even when I "quit" safari, because I can run a seperate instance of it in the form of Webkit Nightly which isnt affected by safari not being running.
    But I am still oblivious as to how I would set up a window like this, and it has to start at login in addition to being running throughout the day. (I shut my Mac off at night.) Any amount of help would be appricated

    I'm well aware of how to minimize thanks, and it *is* possible to have a Safari window open if you quit it, because you can run it as a separate instance by using WebKit Nightly...
    I am just looking for the best way to set it up so that a WebKit Nightly window will open upon startup, navigate to that webpage, and hide itself. Preferably in the background. This could be done using a .command file or a startup script in automator. My question is.. What is the best direction to take?

  • How can I have two different windows up on one screen at the same time?

    How can I have to different windows open on my screen at one time? Kind of like a split or shared screen.

    If you want this split screen thingy for a single app, do like captfred suggests or see if the app itself supports some sort of splitting, like MS Excel.
    If you want to do this system-wide, maybe you can get what you want by activating and using Spaces: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4313
