Viewing a Website in All It's Glory
by Sheldene Chant

ALTHOUGH I don't believe in straining one's brain by trying to
remember too many keyboard shortcuts, I have recently fallen
in love with one of them.


The next time you are looking at a web page try hitting your F11 key and all those toolbars you've added to your browser will miraculously disappear. You'll see the website in all it's glory - the way the designer intended you to.

Toggling between Full Screen Mode and 'normal' view is very simple (with F11) so all your precious toolbars remain within easy reach. You can still fill in a password (with Roboform) or do a quick search (with Google), but what a pleasure to surf without toolbars cramping one's style continuously.

When you hit F11 using Internet Explorer the Full Screen Mode shows one small toolbar at the top. If you want to remove it take your cursor to this toolbar, right click and choose AutoHide from the menu. To restore the toolbar hold the cursor over the area for a second or so.

If you really can't survive without toolbars you can also customise Full Screen Mode by right-clicking on the top toolbar and selecting the toolbar you can't live without. (This may not work in Opera where Full Screen Mode initially shows no toolbars at all).

And if you can bear to recall another shortcut, Control+N will open a new browser window - which can be useful at times.
