You can do it via javascript execution from WebDriver. See the code in 

https://github.com/daluu/php-webdriver-bindings/blob/master/phpwebdriver/WebDriv
erBackedSelenium.php

see these functions on that page:

windowMaximize()
windowFocus()

Am using the pure webdriver,this code is not working for window maximize.
Please send the steps todo windowmaximize in pure php-webdriver

public function windowMaximize(){
     print "\n".__FUNCTION__.":\n"; //log commands called like SeleniumTestCase
     $this->seleniumSpeedDelay();
     $winMaxScript = <<<WINMAXSCRIPT
if (window.screen){
window.moveTo(0, 0);
window.resizeTo(window.screen.availWidth,window.screen.availHeight);
}
WINMAXSCRIPT;

     $this->webdriver->execute($winMaxScript,array());
    }

Thanks in advance

Hmm...I'll have to look into that then, to confirm the code works or not, in 
theory it should.

Has anyone figured this out yet? It is a bummer that I can not get the browser 
to maximize using the above JavaScript.

Curious to know, the suggested javascript mentioned fails for all browsers or 
just some? As I recall, Firefox stopped supporting that type of javascript 
code, but not sure about other browsers.

I haven't looked at the PHP WebDriver bindings in a while, but as I recall the 
current codebase didn't have support for window maximize, the suggested code in 
my fork was a javascript workaround. The proper workaround is to implement the 
JSONWireProtocol request/command to perform the action instead of javascript, 
but I haven't the time to look into that yet.

A sort of example of how you would make the JSONWireProtocol request via PHP is 
presented in the Facebook PHP WebDriver bindings home page

(under text "Set size of window that has $window_handle with 'POST'")
https://github.com/facebook/php-webdriver

you would then have to implement/port the equivalent code to this project's 
version of the PHP bindings. A code patch from the community is welcome.

I've now implemented the JSONWireProtocol command for this feature rather than 
using the javascript workaround. Give it a try and see if it works.

Fixed in revision 68, with a webdriver->windowMaximize() method.
