Hi all,

In a sense, JavaScript provides a Mozilla presentation mode.
It's possible to 'turn off' most of Mozilla's features like this:

aPopUp=window.open('','Note','toobar=no,location=no,
directories=no,status=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,
copyhistory=no,width=300,height=200')

and then set the width and height to match your screen. When the
new window opens, most of the clutter is gone and you have a
full screen for the presentation.

I've done this for slide shows, but never a full screen; hmm,
something new to play with;-)

Regards,

Jim S.
