Unfortunately, your "simple" request is not simple at all :) There is no reliable, cross-browser method of achieving this. If you search the forums, you will find some discussions on using feature detection to attempt it.

One idea would be to just use javascript like this:

<body onLoad="alert('Please hit F11 on your keyboard to view the page fullscreen.')">

You could even try to create a script that would detect if it is fullscreen, then alert the person if it isn't, annoying them til they made it fullscreen.
However, that would, as I said, annoy people, so not sure how good an option it is.

I agree; check the archieves, see how that works.

Hi Twey,
I don't want to get the cross browser functionality, i just wanted it for IE latest browsers.

I hope it's not important, then.
