<script language="JavaScript"><!--
function max()
if (window.screen) {
window.moveTo(0,0);
window.outerHeight = screen.availHeight;
window.outerWidth = screen.availWidth;
}
}
//--></script>

Call that onload:
<body onload="max()">

Thanks for the respond,

I tried it, didn't work.
I have 3 frames in my window, I put it in the main frame.
Should I put it in every single frame?

Thanks,

If it's in frames, it should go in the frameset document.

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<SCRIPT type="text/javascript">
window.onerror = new Function("return true");

function max() {
if (window.screen) {
window.moveTo(0,0);
window.outerHeight = screen.availHeight;
window.outerWidth = screen.availWidth;
}
}

</SCRIPT>

I'm having the same problem with my page. The difference being that I am using layers rather than frames and I'm using the approach in Danny Goodman's JavaScript Bible, i.e.:
// define the function
function fullScreen() {
this.moveTo(0,0)
this.outerWidth = screen.availWidth
this.outerHeight = screen.availHeight
}
// assign the function to a custom property
window.maximize = fullScreen

I call window.maximize in function Init() which is called by my: <BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" ONLOAD="init()">

I have even gone so far as to try cijori's code:

function init()
{

// force browser to full screen and get available document area dimensions
// window.maximize();
window.moveTo(0,0);
window.outerHeight = screen.availHeight;
window.outerWidth = screen.availWidth;

to no avail. I'm working with IE 5.5. Thoughts, anyone?

I should have looker a bit further :p !

I found my answer in the thread:http://forums.webdeveloper.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=2203&highlight=maximize

My fullScreen function is now:

function fullScreen() // custom property for window object
{

this.moveTo(0, 0);
this.resizeTo(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight)
// this.outerWidth = screen.availWidth;
// this.outerHeight = screen.availHeight;

} // end of fullScreen
