I don't believe you could simulate the key press and I don't see anything that indicates that firefox accepts -fullscreen as a startup option. But it does accept -height &amp;&nbsp;-width options which you could use to fill the screen.

Oh right actually I used an xpi for firefox to add the xpi, but have just discovered that some tweaking i have done to remove menus and context menus seem to disable it. Hense the attempt to use a key press. Oh well i guess it was worth a try. <br />
<br />
What is the syntex for setting the browser window size? i have already tried it using -geometry yet there is no change it is always 800x600.

Hi <br />
I am using a .xsession script to start a firefox browser but would like it to start in fullscreen mode, the key to start fullscreen mode in firefox is F11, is it possible to add a line to the .xsession script to simulate an F11 key press after firefox has been started?<br />
<br />
Here is the .xsession script that starts the web browser once the &quot;kiosk&quot; user has been automatically logged in.<br />
<br />
<br />
while true ; do<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;/firefox/firefox -fullscreen<br />
<br />
done<br />
