Answer 1

You can try using this one: http://andrew.hedges.name/experiments/fullscreen/

Answer 2

You cannot force computer users to enter things through javascript. This violates the sandbox environment of browsers. I assume that you are trying to make the window full screen. This SO question covers this.

Answer 3

To trigger the Keypress event from the F11 key, like from a keyboard, we need this.

Call this function whenever you press a button or event that we select.

function mKeyF11(){ var e = new Event('keypress'); e.which = 122; // Character F11 equivalent. e.altKey=false; e.ctrlKey=false; e.shiftKey=false; e.metaKey=false; e.bubbles=true; document.dispatchEvent(e); } 

Note: this is a Javascript function and jQuery is not required to support it.

Example working code:

 document.addEventListener("keyup", keyUpTextField, false); function keyUpTextField (e) { var keyCode = e.keyCode; if(keyCode==122){/*ejecutaAlgo*/} }
