The best solution I could find at present time to open a window maximized is  Internet Explorer 11  Chrome 49  Firefox 45      var popup   window open  your url    popup    fullscreen      if  popup outerWidth  lt  screen availWidth    popup outerHeight  lt  screen availHeight          popup moveTo 0 0       popup resizeTo screen availWidth  screen availHeight         see https   jsfiddle net 8xwocrp6 7   Note 1  It does not work on Edge  13 1058686   Not sure whether it s a bug or if it s as designed  I ve filled a bug report  we ll see what they have to say about it   Here is a workaround   if  navigator userAgent match  Edge   d  g         return window open  your url    popup    width     screen width     height     screen height       Note 2  moveTo or resizeTo will not work  Access denied  if the window you are opening is on another domain

If I use Firefox  then screen width and screen height works fine but in IE and Chrome they  don t work properly instead it opens with the minimum size   And yes I tried giving too large numbers too like 10000 for both height and width but not exactly the maximized effect

var params          height   screen height       width   screen width       fullscreen yes     only works in IE  but here for completeness   join               and any other options from         https   developer mozilla org en DOM window open  var popup   window open  http   www google com    popup window   params    popup moveTo 0 0     Please refrain from opening the popup unless the user really wants it  otherwise they will curse you and blacklist your site   -   edit  Oops  as Joren Van Severen points out in a comment  this may not take into account taskbars and window decorations  in a possibly browser-dependent way   Be aware  It seems that ignoring height and width  only param is fullscreen yes  seems to work on Chrome and perhaps Firefox too  the original  fullscreen  functionality has been disabled in Firefox for being obnoxious  but has been replaced with maximization  This directly contradicts information on the same page of https   developer mozilla org en DOM window open which says that window-maximizing is impossible  This  feature  may or may not be supported depending on the browser
