Could anyone help me?
I need to know how to make the first page in my web site automatically maximise when a user surfs onto it.
I need this desperately.
Any help appreciated!

GOOD headline!
But tell us, is this 1st page HTML or Flash?
If it’s html, you need a javascript to detect the screen.availableWidth + screen.availableHeight, you will, I think, find this at [http://javascript.internet.com](http://javascript.internet.com) …
Else, in Flash, you have fscommand(“fullscreen”, “true”); to be placed in any keyframe at the beginning, in combination with
fscommand(“allowscale”, “false”); to keep people from resizing the window.
Helps?
