Open .swf in full-screen browser window?

Hi there! I would appreciate if someone could help me with this:
I have a .swf that I embed in an .html file. When loaded, the html file opens up in a window with the application taking up only 50% of the window. I'd like to have the application open in a window that's full screen. Is that possible at all?
The .html file I'm using is a standard one generated by Captivate and looks like this:

    <div id="CaptivateContent"> </div>
    <script type="text/javascript">
       var so = new SWFObject("myfile.swf", "Captivate", "891", "551", "10", "#ffffff");
        so.addParam("quality", "high");
        so.addParam("name", "Captivate");
        so.addParam("id", "Captivate");
        so.addParam("wmode", "window");

        so.addVariable("variable1", "value1");
        so.setAttribute("redirectUrl", "http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash");
        so.write("CaptivateContent");
    </script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        document.getElementById('Captivate').focus();
        document.Captivate.focus();

Hi,
What do mean by browser window?
If you mean the File>Open dialog, double click on the Title bar to get it back to a smaller size.

Full Screen Browser Window

When i publish for full screen, I don't get a true full
screen browser window. I get a browser window that is supposed to
be large enough for the Captivate file but it's not always working
depending on the computer. I would like have the html file launch a
true full screen browser window no matter what resolution the user
has. Any html gurus know what i can change in the html file to make
that happen?

Have you done a search for "full screen" in these forums? I
think you'll find that there are different approaches, depending on
your definition of full screen.
None of these solutions is perfect from what I've seen as
we're forced to deal with what the browser vendors will allow in
this "more secure" day and age.

Opening swf in full screen mode

Hi,
Is there a way to adjust the screen resolution through actionscript? My requirement is to open the flash movie in full screen mode while all the contents are resized according to the screen size that the movie clip is runing. Please note the movie is not opening on a browser, it should be opened as a stand-alone SWF file.
I tried to do this by setting stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN; at the begining of actionscripot, but it didn't work.
Thanks.

Hi,
I am using the below function and it is working fine..
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.StageDisplayState;
fullScreenBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onfullScreen);
function onfullScreen(event:MouseEvent):void
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
i think the problem is you are trying to load it full screen from flash IDE, if so then it will not work, Try to run the SWF file seperately, it would definately work.

I have the same question. This is also made more difficult as apple has taken away the handy full screen icon on the upper right hand corner.

Safari status bar disappears. I have tried clicking on show status bar, under the View tab and it will only appear when I move the cursor to the top of the screen. I can not minimize the open page, only full screen or close the browser. Any idea how the rectify this issue?

One enters and exits full-screen with control+command+F keys. This is on the View menu in Safari. Optionally, the green traffic light in your browser title bar, if you roll over it, has the full-screen control it it. While in full-screen mode with Safari, moving your mouse pointer virtually up, and off-screen reveals the Safari title bar again, and you can click the green traffic light to exit full-screen mode.
You can hide/show the status bar by simply typing command+/. This too, is on the Safari View menu. and in 10.10.1 — it works reliably for me.

I recently had some repairs done to my ATT U-verse connection, and now my Safari doesn't open in a full screen. How do I reset that to open in full screen?

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"

Merge two full-screened safari windows' bug under lion

Hi there,
After installed lion, i found an obviously bug in safari.
1. Open safari, enter full-screen mode.
2. Creat a new safari window (not a new tab), then it will moved into a other full-screen automaticlly.
3. Click in menu bar : window>merge all windows.
4. And here you go, two widows will be merged into one full-screen without the 'quit full-screen mode' buttom, and the other full-screen 'desktop' will be blank with only background. And the mission control died also XD

exactly, see~

Open a SWT full screen shell on PocketPc

Hi to all, i want to open a SWT full screen shell on PocketPc, with aim to hide the win mobile bar , and hide the win close button of application!
It's possible? How i can do it?
Shell s = new Shell(disp, .... ? ....);
Thanks to all,
Muzero

I suppose that you have this exception when the second window is initiated...
Excuse my remark, it may be perfectly stupid : do you have two screens? The full screen window is supposed to show itself on the user's second screen.
Or maybe the screens are not handled the same way on each computer? (I'm not used at developping applications working on two screens...)
thanks for your help

Trying to use launchd to reload full-screen browser

I'm trying to use launchd to run a simple digital sign to show the weather.
Use case:
Start browser on boot, load up a URL (THIS WORKS)
Run a simple apple script that reloads the browser
Use launchd to run that script to reload the browser every 5 minutes.
All was well until I switched my browser to full-screen mode.
Now, when the launchd script fires off, it moves back to the desktop (away from the full screen browser).
Tabs reload correctly but the user cannot see them (because the browser is not visible anymore).
Put simply: If I open up a browser into full screen mode, and then use launchd Apple script to reload it, the full-screen browser dissapears, and the Desktop shows up. If I command-tab back to the browser, I can see that the reload worked.
Does anyone know how to make this work so that the browser reloads in full-screen mode without switching to the desktop when I call my applescript?
If it helps, here is my code in the apple script... this all works (I'm using a Chrome extension to make ctrl+shift+r reload all tabs)
tell application "Google Chrome" to activate
tell application "System Events"
          delay 2.0
          tell process "Google Chrome"
key down control
key down shift
key down "r"
                    delay 0.2
                    key up "r"
key up shift
key up control
          end tell
end tell

keystroke "r" using {control down, shift down}
          end tell
end tell

Since I installed Firefox 3.6.3, every time I open Google Notifier, two Firefox browser windows open.

I am running Firefox 3.6.3 on my Mac G5 and my MacBook.
Since I installed Firefox 3.6.3, everytime I open Google Notifier, two Firefox browser windows open. This happens on both of my computers.
This never used to happen before, in the earlier versions.
How do I make it so that only one browser window opens?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I installed Firefox 3.6.3 ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X 10_4_11; en) AppleWebKit/531.22.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Safari/531.22.7

I got this all screwed up too.
hmm.. where to start?
3.6 and 4.0 beta - really aren't intended to play well together.
As has been mentioned above, they tend to write over each other.
I managed to get both 3.6.15 and 4.0 beta 12 on the same machine.
But, I had to do it several times.
I got lucky by deleting everything Mozilla, then installing 4.0b12, then 3.6.15 - while making sure that each installed into a separate folder.
I also took care to copy out a couple of BookMark BackUp files - just in case.
My old 3.6# had become so bloated - and, Unstable - for Me, it was time.
The bookmarks were all that I was still interested in.
All the Plugins, Themes, AddOns, etc... had slowed the app to a crawl.
So, I did as complete a wipe of Mozilla bloat code that I could, including profiles.
I then did some registry cleaning.
Then I installed 4.0b12 and 3.6.15.
I can't open them both at the same time.
If I open 3.6.15 first, then open 4.0b12 - the beta comes up as 3.6.15.
If I open 4.0b12 first, then open 3.6.15 - the 3.6 comes up as the beta.
This has a lot to do with both apps sharing the same default profile.
I hope to drop down to one app in the near future.
So, cobbling multiple profiles in order to diddle side by side apps - isn't worth it at this stage.
For me, I can't open FF 4.0b12 when my virus protection is running. PCTools doesn't like some thing about the way FF4.0 wants to phone home when it opens.
So, I can't commit to the 4.0b12, yet.
3.6.15 was crashing on open too - until I uninstalled the feedback addon. - go figure -.
Also, I can't get the 4.0b12 to start in safe-mode with the PCTools antivirus running.
At the rater they are going, I don't see 3.6.# going away any time soon.

When I have the downloads window open and I close the browser window, how can I get the browser to open the homepage the next time I start it while the download window is still open?

When I have the downloads window open and I close the browser window, the next time I reopen the browser while the downloads are still going, it returns me to the last page I was on. All previous versions of Firefox would return me to my homepage which I would prefer. Please let me know if this is possible.

When you re-open Firefox and choose Restore Session, by default it picks up your most-recently-open window, and the other windows should then show up in Recently Closed Windows.
The Firefox add-on Session Manager lets you manage how many closed windows and closed tabs are saved, in case it's not enough.

Is it possible for multiple/different hyperlinks to open up in the SAME browser window?

I am able to put hyperlinks to various web pages in a PDF document. When I click on the first one, it opens up in a new browser window. The problem is that I want each subsequent link to reuse that same browser window. This seems to work when I open up the PDF document from my desktop, but if the document is first loaded into a web page, each link opens up a *new* browser window.

Hi Pat,
Thanks for the quick response.
I used Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 to create the document. I added a link and then in the "Actions" property for the link, I specified
"Run a javascript": app.launchURL("http://www.cnnfn.com", true) .
I had to use the app.launchURL method because the "Open a Web Link" action causes a warning message to appear when the PDF is contained in web page. You have to first click "Open in a new window" before the url is opened up in a new browser window. The behavior that we want is that each time you click on a hyperlink on the PDF, you are automatically taken to a specific browser window (without warning and reusing the window that has already been opened).

IWeb link opening in a external (new) browser window.

Dear members:
After making several unsuccessful attempts to find this information I decided to post a questions here to see if anyone has the answer.
I have created two web site with several web pages in iWeb but haven't been able to add links to a page that open not in that same page but to open in an extra (external) browser window. Is there a way to make a link open in a different browser window than the one that has the page with the link ?
Another question I have refers to iWeb's display of some images. For my web sites I chose one of the templates offered with the program. In one of the pages there are small portions of text followed by a square image next to it. Some of the images in iWeb work as placeholders that are replaced by the final images once they are dragged and dropped over them. However, this small images following the text don't behave like that. They simply aren't replaced. I tried to "overlay" the final images over the template ones thinking that once the site was published they would be replaced. Actually, after posting the web site I noticed that when the pages load the template images show up first and them the ones I placed over them beginning to cover them.
Why is this happening and how can I solve this problem ?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Joseph Chamberlain

Dear varkgirl:
Thank you very much for your help and valuable suggestion.
I've tried your suggestion but ran into some problems. The links I am trying to open in another window are actually PDF files that the viewer can download from my website.
Since I was having problems I decided to try something else. After publishing the website to my desktop I then opened the pages where the links are in Dreamweaver. The layout view is great and displayed the image just the way it appears on the browser's window. I first selected the "link button" to the file and then in the inspector windows (bottom of the page) I chose under target the "_blank" option. This tells the software that the linked page or file is to be opened in a new blank browser window. I then saved the page (re-saved it over the existing file) to incorporate the changes. After this I proceeded to navigate through the website and everything works great.
Thank you for your help and suggestions. I just thought I would post this here in case it may be of help to you as well as others.
Best regards,
Joseph Chamberlain

Opening a servlet in new browser window

Does anyone know how you can make a servlet open in a a new browser window when clicking a link for that servlet.
cheers

Hi..
do
window.open("http://localhost:8080//yourservlet-path//servlet-name");
you can also set window properties, they are passed as parameters to window.open
see syntax of window.open. but this thing will open your servlet in a new window with default properties.
