[javascript] How do I make a div full screen?

I am using Flot to graph some of my data and I was thinking it would be great to make this graph appear fullscreen (occupy full space on the monitor) upon clicking on a button. Currently, my div is as follows:

<div id="placeholder" style="width:800px;height:600px"></div>

Of course, the style attribute is only for testing. I will move this to CSS after during the actual design. Is there anyway I could make this div fullscreen and still preserve all event handling?

Can use FullScreen API like this

function toggleFullscreen() {
  let elem = document.querySelector('#demo-video');

  if (!document.fullscreenElement) {
    elem.requestFullscreen().catch(err => {
      alert(`Error attempting to enable full-screen mode: ${err.message} (${err.name})`);
    });
  } else {
    document.exitFullscreen();
  }
}

Demo

const elem = document.querySelector('#park-pic');_x000D_
_x000D_
elem.addEventListener("click", function(e) {_x000D_
  toggleFullScreen();_x000D_
}, false);_x000D_
_x000D_
function toggleFullScreen() {_x000D_
_x000D_
  if (!document.fullscreenElement) {_x000D_
    elem.requestFullscreen().catch(err => {_x000D_
      alert(`Error attempting to enable full-screen mode: ${err.message} (${err.name})`);_x000D_
    });_x000D_
  } else {_x000D_
    document.exitFullscreen();_x000D_
  }_x000D_
}

#container{_x000D_
  border:1px solid #aaa;_x000D_
  padding:10px;_x000D_
}_x000D_
#park-pic {_x000D_
  width: 100%;_x000D_
  max-height: 70vh;_x000D_
}

<div id="container">_x000D_
  <p>_x000D_
    <a href="#" id="toggle-fullscreen">Toggle Fullscreen</a>_x000D_
  </p>_x000D_
  <img id="park-pic"_x000D_
      src="https://storage.coverr.co/posters/Skate-park"></video>_x000D_
</div>

CSS way:

#foo {
   position: absolute;
   top: 0;
   right: 0;
   bottom: 0;
   left: 0;
}

JS way:

$(function() {
    function abso() {
        $('#foo').css({
            position: 'absolute',
            width: $(window).width(),
            height: $(window).height()
        });
    }

    $(window).resize(function() {
        abso();         
    });

    abso();
});

u can try this..

<div id="placeholder" style="width:auto;height:auto"></div>

width and height depends on your flot or graph..

hope u want this...

or

By clicking, u can use this by jquery

$("#placeholder").css("width", $(window).width());
$("#placeholder").css("height", $(window).height());

Use document height if you want to show it beyond the visible area of browser(scrollable area).

CSS Portion

#foo {
    position:absolute;
    top:0;
    left:0;
}

JQuery Portion

$(document).ready(function() {
   $('#foo').css({
       width: $(document).width(),
       height: $(document).height()
   });
});

.widget-HomePageSlider .slider-loader-hide {
    position: fixed;
    top: 0px;
    left: 0px;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    z-index: 10000;
    background: white;
}

You can use HTML5 Fullscreen API for this (which is the most suitable way i think).

The fullscreen has to be triggered via a user event (click, keypress) otherwise it won't work.

Here is a button which makes the div fullscreen on click. And in fullscreen mode, the button click will exit fullscreen mode.

$('#toggle_fullscreen').on('click', function(){_x000D_
  // if already full screen; exit_x000D_
  // else go fullscreen_x000D_
  if (_x000D_
    document.fullscreenElement ||_x000D_
    document.webkitFullscreenElement ||_x000D_
    document.mozFullScreenElement ||_x000D_
    document.msFullscreenElement_x000D_
  ) {_x000D_
    if (document.exitFullscreen) {_x000D_
      document.exitFullscreen();_x000D_
    } else if (document.mozCancelFullScreen) {_x000D_
      document.mozCancelFullScreen();_x000D_
    } else if (document.webkitExitFullscreen) {_x000D_
      document.webkitExitFullscreen();_x000D_
    } else if (document.msExitFullscreen) {_x000D_
      document.msExitFullscreen();_x000D_
    }_x000D_
  } else {_x000D_
    element = $('#container').get(0);_x000D_
    if (element.requestFullscreen) {_x000D_
      element.requestFullscreen();_x000D_
    } else if (element.mozRequestFullScreen) {_x000D_
      element.mozRequestFullScreen();_x000D_
    } else if (element.webkitRequestFullscreen) {_x000D_
      element.webkitRequestFullscreen(Element.ALLOW_KEYBOARD_INPUT);_x000D_
    } else if (element.msRequestFullscreen) {_x000D_
      element.msRequestFullscreen();_x000D_
    }_x000D_
  }_x000D_
});

#container{_x000D_
  border:1px solid red;_x000D_
  border-radius: .5em;_x000D_
  padding:10px;_x000D_
}

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>_x000D_
<div id="container">_x000D_
  <p>_x000D_
    <a href="#" id="toggle_fullscreen">Toggle Fullscreen</a>_x000D_
  </p>_x000D_
  I will be fullscreen, yay!_x000D_
</div>

Please also note that Fullscreen API for Chrome does not work in non-secure pages. See https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/Home/chromium-security/deprecating-powerful-features-on-insecure-origins for more details.

Another thing to note is the :fullscreen CSS selector. You can append this to any css selector so the that the rules will be applied when that element is fullscreen:

#container:-webkit-full-screen,
#container:-moz-full-screen,
#container:-ms-fullscreen,
#container:fullscreen {
    width: 100vw;
    height: 100vh;
    }

For fullscreen of browser rendering area there is a simple solution supported by all modern browsers.

div#placeholder {
    height: 100vh;
}

The only notable exception is the Android below 4.3 - but ofc only in the system browser/webview element (Chrome works ok).

For fullscreen of monitor please use HTML5 Fullscreen API

This is the simplest one.

#divid {
   position: fixed;
   top: 0;
   right: 0;
   bottom: 0;
   left: 0;
}

<div id="placeholder" style="position:absolute; top:0; right:0; bottom:0; left:0;"></div>
