Is there a way to set the browser window to theater mode (fullscreen no toolbars, etc) from the HTML document? I know you can open a new browser window and set the specs, but I was wondering if it can be done to the current browser window.

NO. The only way to set it that way is when you start the browser by specifying that the browser is to run in Kiosk mode by adding a -k flag to the command to run the browser. Once the browser starts running in a window it can't be swapped by the browser owner without closing and reopening the browser and a web page can't even resize a browser unless the owner permits.

Thanks! That is very helpful. I want to be able to allow the user to bring up the web page from an icon on their desktop so I can just add that -k flag in the startup command. Thanks again!
