Internet Explorer Help Needed.

Hey All,

How do i make it so that when i open a new browser window it opens full screen?

The problem im having is, say im viewing a post here on AT that has a link to somthing kewl. when i click on the link the browser opens a new window, but all i see is the blue bar accross the top of the browser( where the max/minimixe and X for closeing window buttons are) i dont see any of the page unless i click on maximize.

i am running win xp pro.

thanx

try this simple thing.

open a link...and then instead of maximizing it...physically "pull" the corners until it is full screen (or as close as you can get)

then, close BOTH browsers.

then, open up one and try a link again...see if settings stuck

thanx for the sugestion, but didnt work

any other ideas sohcrates?

 

[sohcrates]

try this slight variation and let me know

after opening new browser window...close ORIGINAL..but keep new window open

then drag new window as big as possible as before...then close it

try opening again
