[SOLVED] HTML Page question

December 06, 2019, 10:22 AM

We have a button that links to an HTML page. It seems the default for any page we open is about 40% full screen, is there a setting/property that can cause the html page to open full screen?

Just a few clarification questions that will help us get started in answering this:

What browser ar you using?
When you say full screen, do you mean:

The page to fill the entire browser viewport?
The browser to fill the entire monitor?

How is the html page being opened?
- In a new tab/window?
- In the same window?
- In an iframe in the same window?
- etc
How did you create the html page that is containing the button?
- HTML Canvas? (AppStudio)
- Raw html
What is the html page that is being opened?
- A fex file?
  - Autoprompt?
  - No autoprompt?
  - Does it use an HTMLFORM block
- A .html/.htm page created by the htmlcanvas in AppStudio?
- Raw html?

IE Explorer 11

We want the page to fill a maximized browser window....the entire monitor sans the task bar at the bottom; ie open full screen.

Page is opened from another HTML page when the user clicks a button with the new HTML page associated with it on via tasks an animations.

Via HTML canvas - both the calling and called HTML pages.

It is an HTML page calling a second HTML page.

Thanks!

That would require some javascript in the page being opened. See https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_js_fullscreen.asp and scroll down to the Fullscreen Document"
