Attachment: portrait_3_screenshots.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:21.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/21.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20130511120803

Steps to reproduce:

Tried out the following fullscreen demos:

http://html5-demos.appspot.com/static/fullscreen.html
http://blogs.sitepointstatic.com/examples/tech/full-screen/index.html
http://davidwalsh.name/demo/fullscreen.php


Actual results:

(See attached screenshots)

They did not take up the full screen (not even the full Firefox App area) and had weird artifacts on two of them.


Expected results:

They should have shown the web page as covering the entire Firefox App area with no artifacts.

Thanks. Any idea why it didn't show up in search? I hate to do this, but should I submit a bug for bugzilla to improve the searching of existing bugs?

Nah, search is always improving with Bugzilla versions, takes a long-time unfortunately; there are bugs out there.
