Full-screen mode doesn't work on Firefox 3.0.x or Chrome #174

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open full screen sample in Firefox (or Chrome, or IE)
2. Click "Click for full-screen" button.
3. Notice that while the screen blanks out and flashes, you are returned
   to non-full-screen mode.

It appears that the screen resolution does change to full screen mode, but 
it exits immediately.  One difference between browsers is that at least in 
chrome we get to see one frame of the full-screen output.

This was on a development workstation with two monitors, so perhaps it's a 
two monitor issue.  Here's what video hardware I have:

NVidia Quadro FX 380
Driver: (8.15.11.9038, From NVIDIA)

Actually, looks like full screen mode DOES work in IE, but not in Chrome or 
Firefox.

What version of Firefox are you using? I've seen continued flakiness of our 
full-screen code when running on 
Vista 64 in 3.0.x, but it seems to work pretty reliably on Vista 64 from within 
3.5.x. The new code was tested on 
a dual-monitor Vista system.

The failure to go to full screen in Chrome on Vista is a known problem:

marked as a duplicate but the root issue has apparently still not been fixed.

I have firefox version 3.0.14

(And actually, this surprises me -- I thought it was auto-updating and expected 
to have 
3.5 or later.)

Indeed, upgrading to Firefox 3.5.3 solved the problem, and full-screen mode 
works now.
