新的html5技术-全屏API给了我们一个简单的方法 以全屏模式显示网页内容。我们即将付出 全屏模式的详细信息。试着 想象一下你可以利用它得到的所有可能的好处 技术-全屏相册，视频，甚至游戏。

但在我们描述这项新技术之前，我必须指出，这项技术是实验性的，所有主流浏览器都支持它。

这段代码还包括如何启用Internet Explorer 9的全屏，可能是更老的版本， 以及最新版本的谷歌Chrome。接受的答案也可以用于其他浏览器。

var el = document.documentElement
    , rfs = // for newer Webkit and Firefox
           el.requestFullscreen
        || el.webkitRequestFullScreen
        || el.mozRequestFullScreen
        || el.msRequestFullscreen
;
if(typeof rfs!="undefined" && rfs){
  rfs.call(el);
} else if(typeof window.ActiveXObject!="undefined"){
  // for Internet Explorer
  var wscript = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
  if (wscript!=null) {
     wscript.SendKeys("{F11}");
  }
}

Chrome全屏API(请注意，然而 requestFullscreen“只工作在”“[m]大多数UIEvents和鼠标事件，如点击和按下键等”，“所以它不能被恶意使用”) 如何使浏览器全屏使用F11键事件通过JavaScript

以下是我对全屏和退出全屏的完整解决方案(非常感谢上面塔的回答):

$(document).ready(function(){
$.is_fs = false;
$.requestFullScreen = function(calr)
{
    var element = document.body;

    // Supports most browsers and their versions.
    var requestMethod = element.requestFullScreen || element.webkitRequestFullScreen || element.mozRequestFullScreen || element.msRequestFullScreen;

    if (requestMethod) { // Native full screen.
        requestMethod.call(element);
    } else if (typeof window.ActiveXObject !== "undefined") { // Older IE.
        var wscript = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
        if (wscript !== null) {
            wscript.SendKeys("{F11}");
        }
    }

    $.is_fs = true;    
    $(calr).val('Exit Full Screen');
}

$.cancel_fs = function(calr)
{
    var element = document; //and NOT document.body!!
    var requestMethod = element.exitFullScreen || element.mozCancelFullScreen || element.webkitExitFullScreen || element.mozExitFullScreen || element.msExitFullScreen || element.webkitCancelFullScreen;

    if (requestMethod) { // Native full screen.
    requestMethod.call(element);
    } else if (typeof window.ActiveXObject !== "undefined") { // Older IE.
        var wscript = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
        if (wscript !== null) {
            wscript.SendKeys("{F11}");
        }
    }    

    $(calr).val('Full Screen');    
    $.is_fs = false;
}

$.toggleFS = function(calr)
{    
    $.is_fs == true? $.cancel_fs(calr):$.requestFullScreen(calr);
}

});

// 调用:

<input type="button" value="Full Screen" onclick="$.toggleFS(this);" />

简单的例子:http://www.longtailvideo.com/blog/26517/using-the-browsers-new-html5-fullscreen-capabilities/

<script type="text/javascript">
  function goFullscreen(id) {
    // Get the element that we want to take into fullscreen mode
    var element = document.getElementById(id);

    // These function will not exist in the browsers that don't support fullscreen mode yet, 
    // so we'll have to check to see if they're available before calling them.

    if (element.mozRequestFullScreen) {
      // This is how to go into fullscren mode in Firefox
      // Note the "moz" prefix, which is short for Mozilla.
      element.mozRequestFullScreen();
    } else if (element.webkitRequestFullScreen) {
      // This is how to go into fullscreen mode in Chrome and Safari
      // Both of those browsers are based on the Webkit project, hence the same prefix.
      element.webkitRequestFullScreen();
   }
   // Hooray, now we're in fullscreen mode!
  }
</script>

<img class="video_player" src="image.jpg" id="player"></img>
<button onclick="goFullscreen('player'); return false">Click Me To Go Fullscreen! (For real)</button>

这是JavaScript中最接近全屏的效果:

<script type="text/javascript">
    window.onload = maxWindow;

    function maxWindow() {
        window.moveTo(0, 0);

        if (document.all) {
            top.window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth, screen.availHeight);
        }

        else if (document.layers || document.getElementById) {
            if (top.window.outerHeight < screen.availHeight || top.window.outerWidth < screen.availWidth) {
                top.window.outerHeight = screen.availHeight;
                top.window.outerWidth = screen.availWidth;
            }
        }
    }
</script> 

既然全屏api越来越广泛，而且似乎越来越成熟，为什么不试试Screenfull.js呢?我昨天第一次使用它，今天我们的应用程序在(几乎)所有浏览器中真正全屏!

确保它与CSS中的:fullscreen伪类相结合。详见https://www.sitepoint.com/use-html5-full-screen-api/。
