    Javascript - Full Screen on Second Monitor? (Bump)

    I am working a project where I am using two monitors and using
    HTML/Javascript to display the information I want.

    I have my main stuff on the main monitor, but when each page loads, I want
    an image to load fullscreen on the second monitor as well. I am using
    800x600 resoution on both.

    If I use:

    function openWindow()
    {
    mainWindow = window.open("th ispage.htm","pa gename","fullsc reen=yes");
    }

    that works fine for the main monitor.

    I have then tried to use the second monitor to open an image by using the
    same type of thing:

    function imageWindow()
    {
    openImage = window.open("im age.jpg","image page","fullscre en=yes");
    openImage.moveT o(801,0);
    parent.focus();
    }

    I am trying to use it with the onload command as well:

    <body onLoad="imageWi ndow();">

    I am passing arguments to these functions but simplified it here.

    Anyhow it will only open it full screen on the first monitor. I can position
    it and move it to the second monitor if it is not full screen just fine.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Thanks!

    Mark

    [window object].moveTo() and [window object].resizeTo() do not work on windows
    opened with fullscreen=1 or fullscreen=yes. This was a security addition to
    Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1 to prevent chromeless windows from mimicing
    or spoofing existing UI elements.
