Force the browser to fill the screen with your new Web page

Typically, when the browser loads a new page, it only uses a portion of the screen's real estate. However, if your pages are so grand that no minimized window will ever do, you can use the window.resizeTo function to force the browser to load your pages within a full screen. The following code accomplishes this task:

<script for=window event=onload>
  window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth, screen.availHeight);
</script>

In this code, the properties screen.availWidth and screen.availHeight determine the maximum height and width for the client screen and passes the values to the window.resizeTo() function. The end result is a fully maximized page.
