I've got this trouble and I was wondering if you can help me. I'm trying to maximize the window without showing any button or toolbar, and I wish it works in as much as possibles browsers.

Now I can get it with IE, but I can't with Chrome. I've been looking for a solution here but I haven't found any question similar (if it's I'm so sorry).

I've read that it could be easy using jQuery but I have no idea. I prefer to do it using JS Any suggestion or help will be wele!

• I was using this for IE, but it doesn't work on Chrome, at least for me: <script> window.moveTo(0,0); if (document.all) { top.window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight); } else if (document.layers||document.getElementById) { if (top.window.outerHeight<screen.availHeight||top.window.outerWidth<screen.availWidth){ top.window.outerHeight = screen.availHeight; top.window.outerWidth = screen.availWidth; } } window.focus(); </script> – Carol Commented Oct 25, 2012 at 20:13

The best you can do is using window.resizeBy(x, y) and window.resizeTo(x, y)
