This is a shame as it means that Firefox cannot be used in 'kiosk mode' like IE can. This mode is particularly useful when delivering multimedia on the web. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to URL http://www.leedsmet.ac.uk/lskills/lcvt/city.html, select 'load tour' if necessary 2. 3. Actual Results: Incorrectly sized window opened (chops content). Expected Results: Fullscreen window opened (ideally with no title bar, but certainly using all available screen space).

UPDATE: I tried pressing F11 when in the non-fullscreen popup and now whenever I access a page with the "fullscreen=yes" javascript window attribute, it works OK! Thought that might help if you find you can't replicate the bug. Cheers.
this bug is a duplicate of bug 272241. unfortunately i don't see the option to mark it as a duplicate, so i added the bug as dependent of 272241. i think that's the best aproximation i have.
Depends on: 272241

I confirm that this bug is the same that "my" bug 272241. As this bug 265097 seems to have no other option than "leave as unconfirmed" (which makes it unmanageable) I advice to go to bug 272241 where there are other discutions. Yes Dominic Winsor (Comment #1) pressing F11 does the trick manually, but it does not replace the real automated function. I have a webcomic having hundreds of pages... would you bear to press F11 at each page? Worse many web users are just beginners, or people who do not bother to learn many tips about computers. I myself (although a computer technician) spent years before discovering the F11 tip. So automatic means must work, and window.open must work with all its features, as it is the only mean to really manage window size.
