How do I make a div full screen?

Question

I am using Flot to graph some of my data and I was thinking it would be great to make this graph appear fullscreen (occupy full space on the monitor) upon clicking on a butt

Answer 1

Can use FullScreen API like this

function toggleFullscreen() {
  let elem = document.querySelector('#demo-video');

  if (!document.fullscreenElement) {
    elem.requestFullscreen().catch(err => {
      alert(`Error attempting to enable full-screen mode: ${err.message} (${err.name})`);
    });
  } else {
    document.exitFullscreen();
  }
}

Demo

const elem = document.querySelector('#park-pic');

elem.addEventListener("click", function(e) {
  toggleFullScreen();
}, false);

function toggleFullScreen() {

  if (!document.fullscreenElement) {
    elem.requestFullscreen().catch(err => {
      alert(`Error attempting to enable full-screen mode: ${err.message} (${err.name})`);
    });
  } else {
    document.exitFullscreen();
  }
}

#container{
  border:1px solid #aaa;
  padding:10px;
}
#park-pic {
  width: 100%;
  max-height: 70vh;
}

<div id="container">
  <p>
    <a href="#" id="toggle-fullscreen">Toggle Fullscreen</a>
  </p>
  <img id="park-pic"
      src="https://storage.coverr.co/posters/Skate-park"></video>
</div>

You can use HTML5 Fullscreen API for this (which is the most suitable way i think).

The fullscreen has to be triggered via a user event (click, keypress) otherwise it won't work.

Here is a button which makes the div fullscreen on click. And in fullscreen mode, the button click will exit fullscreen mode.

$('#toggle_fullscreen').on('click', function(){
  // if already full screen; exit
  // else go fullscreen
  if (
    document.fullscreenElement ||
    document.webkitFullscreenElement ||
    document.mozFullScreenElement ||
    document.msFullscreenElement
  ) {
    if (document.exitFullscreen) {
      document.exitFullscreen();
    } else if (document.mozCancelFullScreen) {
      document.mozCancelFullScreen();
    } else if (document.webkitExitFullscreen) {
      document.webkitExitFullscreen();
    } else if (document.msExitFullscreen) {
      document.msExitFullscreen();
    }
  } else {
    element = $('#container').get(0);
    if (element.requestFullscreen) {
      element.requestFullscreen();
    } else if (element.mozRequestFullScreen) {
      element.mozRequestFullScreen();
    } else if (element.webkitRequestFullscreen) {
      element.webkitRequestFullscreen(Element.ALLOW_KEYBOARD_INPUT);
    } else if (element.msRequestFullscreen) {
      element.msRequestFullscreen();
    }
  }
});

#container{
  border:1px solid red;
  border-radius: .5em;
  padding:10px;
}

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="container">
  <p>
    <a href="#" id="toggle_fullscreen">Toggle Fullscreen</a>
  </p>
  I will be fullscreen, yay!
</div>

Please also note that Fullscreen API for Chrome does not work in non-secure pages. See https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/Home/chromium-security/deprecating-powerful-features-on-insecure-origins for more details.

Another thing to note is the :fullscreen CSS selector. You can append this to any css selector so the that the rules will be applied when that element is fullscreen:

#container:-webkit-full-screen,
#container:-moz-full-screen,
#container:-ms-fullscreen,
#container:fullscreen {
    width: 100vw;
    height: 100vh;
    }

.widget-HomePageSlider .slider-loader-hide {
    position: fixed;
    top: 0px;
    left: 0px;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    z-index: 10000;
    background: white;
}

For fullscreen of browser rendering area there is a simple solution supported by all modern browsers.

div#placeholder {
    height: 100vh;
}

The only notable exception is the Android below 4.3 - but ofc only in the system browser/webview element (Chrome works ok).

For fullscreen of monitor please use HTML5 Fullscreen API

Answer 5

This is the simplest one.

#divid {
   position: fixed;
   top: 0;
   right: 0;
   bottom: 0;
   left: 0;
}

Answer 6

Use document height if you want to show it beyond the visible area of browser(scrollable area).

CSS Portion

#foo {
    position:absolute;
    top:0;
    left:0;
}

JQuery Portion

$(document).ready(function() {
   $('#foo').css({
       width: $(document).width(),
       height: $(document).height()
   });
});
