Fullscreen the page
document.getElementById('button').addEventListener('click', () => {

screenfull.request();
} else {
// Ignore or do something else
}

Fullscreen an element
const el = document.getElementById('target');
document.getElementById('button').addEventListener('click', () => {
if (screenfull.enabled) {
screenfull.request(el);
}
});
Fullscreen an element with jQuery
const target = $('#target')[0]; // Get DOM element from jQuery collection
$('#button').on('click', () => {
if (screenfull.enabled) {
screenfull.request(target);
}
});
Toggle fullscreen on a image with jQuery
$('img').on('click', event => {
if (screenfull.enabled) {
screenfull.toggle(event.target);
}
});
Detect fullscreen change
if (screenfull.enabled) {
screenfull.on('change', () => {
console.log('Am I fullscreen?', screenfull.isFullscreen ? 'Yes' : 'No');
});
}
Remove listeners with:
screenfull.off('change', callback);
Detect fullscreen error

screenfull.on('error', event => {
console.error('Failed to enable fullscreen', event);
});
}

Fullscreen an element with Angular.js
You can use the Angular.js binding to do something like:
<div ngsf-fullscreen>
<p>This is a fullscreen element</p>
<button ngsf-toggle-fullscreen>Toggle fullscreen</button>
</div>
Fullscreen the page with Angular 2
import {Directive, HostListener} from '@angular/core';
import screenfull = require('screenfull');
@Directive({
selector: '[toggleFullscreen]'
})
export class ToggleFullscreenDirective {
@HostListener('click') onClick() {
if (screenfull.enabled) {
screenfull.toggle();
}
}
}
<button toggleFullscreen>Toggle fullscreen<button>
Methods
.request()
Make an element fullscreen.
Accepts a DOM element. Default is <html>
. If called with another element than the currently active, it will switch to that if it's a decendant.
If your page is inside an <iframe>
you will need to add a allowfullscreen
attribute (+ webkitallowfullscreen
and mozallowfullscreen
).
Keep in mind that the browser will only enter fullscreen when initiated by user events like click, touch, key.
Returns a promise that resolves after the element enters fullscreen.
.exit()
Brings you out of fullscreen.
Returns a promise that resolves after the element exits fullscreen.
.toggle()
Requests fullscreen if not active, otherwise exits.
Returns a promise that resolves after the element enters/exits fullscreen.
.on(event, function)
Events: change
error
Add a listener for when the browser switches in and out of fullscreen or when there is an error.
.off(event, function)
Remove a previously registered event listener.
.onchange(function)
Alias for .on('change', function)
.onerror(function)
Alias for .on('error', function)
Properties
.isFullscreen
Returns a boolean whether fullscreen is active.
.element
Returns the element currently in fullscreen, otherwise null
.
.enabled
Returns a boolean whether you are allowed to enter fullscreen. If your page is inside an <iframe>
you will need to add a allowfullscreen
attribute (+ webkitallowfullscreen
and mozallowfullscreen
).

, exitFullscreen

FAQ
How can I navigate to a new page when fullscreen?
That's not supported by browsers for security reasons. There is, however, a dirty workaround. Create a seamless iframe that fills the screen and navigate to the page in that instead.
$('#new-page-btn').click(() => {
const iframe = document.createElement('iframe')
iframe.setAttribute('id', 'external-iframe');
iframe.setAttribute('src', 'http://new-page-website.com');
iframe.setAttribute('frameborder', 'no');
iframe.style.position = 'absolute';
iframe.style.top = '0';
iframe.style.right = '0';
iframe.style.bottom = '0';
iframe.style.left = '0';
iframe.style.width = '100%';
iframe.style.height = '100%';
$(document.body).prepend(iframe);
document.body.style.overflow = 'hidden';
});
