Is there a way to open a tab in full screen mode programatically?
Please let me know. Thanks.

You think of "Fullscreen" like pressing F11 in some tab / window?

As far as I know, the only way to open a tab in fullscreen mode is for
it to be a web app's launch page, and even then the user has to right-
click it and specify, "Open full screen."

Unfortunately, this page says that its method will only work in
Internet Explorer. And I tried it in IE9 just now, and it was more of
a pseudo-fullscreen deal. It wasn't fullscreen mode; it was just
really big.

HackBreaker - what exactly do you mean by "open a tab in fullscreen
mode is for it to be a web app's launch page". I am writing an
extension and when a user presses a button or something, I need to be
able to open a tab in full screen. Is this possible to do?

From the chrome api, try:
chrome.windows.create( {type: "popup"} ); You can also set the height/
width of the window from here.
If you want to go fullscreen (aka equivalent of pressing F11),
then you will need to use NPAPI

Correct. There is no way for a normal extension to open up a tab in
fullscreen mode. The closest you could come without using NPAPI would
be to follow Adam's suggestion, and make a popup window with very
large dimensions.

Ok. Thanks for the information. Chrome should expand their api.
Firefox is so friendly giving more control to the developer.
