Members

staticFullscreen.changeEventName :String

The name of the event on the document that is fired when fullscreen is entered or exited. This event name is intended for use with addEventListener. In your event handler, to determine if the browser is in fullscreen mode or not, use Fullscreen#fullscreen.

staticFullscreen.element :Object

The element that is currently fullscreen, if any. To simply check if the browser is in fullscreen mode or not, use Fullscreen#fullscreen.

staticFullscreen.enabled :Boolean

Determine whether the browser will allow an element to be made fullscreen, or not. For example, by default, iframes cannot go fullscreen unless the containing page adds an "allowfullscreen" attribute (or prefixed equivalent).

staticFullscreen.errorEventName :String

The name of the event that is fired when a fullscreen error occurs. This event name is intended for use with addEventListener.
