You could use


<A HREF="#null" onclick="window.open('yourpage.htm','','fullscreen');return false">Full Screen Link</A>


Then in the page opened in fullscreen include


<a href="#null" onclick="self.close()">Close window</a>

Something like this maybe?


<script>
function full(){
where=document.f1.t1.value
window.open(where,'','fullscreen')
}
</script>

<form name="f1">
Enter URL <input name="t1" type="text">
<input type="button" value="Go" onclick="full()">
</form>

A close window link cannot close a window that the user opened. So all you're going to get is a script that will open a fullscreen pop-up when the first page has finished loading, you can inlude a close window link in this pop-up but when it is closed the original page will still be visible.

<html><head><title>Opener Page</title>

<script type="text/javascript"><!--

function openwin(){

newwin=window.open("http://www.w3.org/","newwin","fullscreen");

}

//--></script>

</head><body onload="openwin();">

<p>You closed the window.</p>

</body></html>

go to http://www.robdrum.co.uk - click anywhere on the page. a full screen thing pops up, then in the top right hand corner there's a little blue x image, which when you click it, closes the window that the user opened.

feel free to steal any code from that as you like... i know its not exactly what you're after... but i'm not a javascript expert.

The user didn't open that pop-up, you did with a js function. When I say a window that the user opened I mean one where the user double clicks their browser icon and opens a window.
