Auto-zoom new Safari windows to near full-screen
Authored by: bluehz on May 19, '03 04:43:23PM
Yes - I have used a bookmark bar version of this tip for years in various browsers. Was thinking it would be nice if whenever you opened a new window it would actually zoom full screen (or desired width). I suppose since Safari won't take JS directly like that you could do something like create a simple blank page with nothing but an ONLOAD statement issuing the JS, save that locally, then point your "home" to that. Create this file, save it locally (ex. ~/Documents)

<html>
<head>
	<title>Home</title>
</head>
<body inload="window.resizeTo((screen.width),(screen.height));window.moveTo(0,0) ">
</body>
</html>
The inload above is supposed to be "onload", but the forum keeps changing it. After saving the above file (ex. home.html), drag it onto Safari, then open Safari Pref > General > and select "Set To Current Page", Now whenever you open a new window it will go full screen. You can of course alter the dimensions above as desired.
