How to Make Safari Display Full Screen
In order to make Safari display fullscreen, follow these steps:
- Open a new safari window or tab.
- Copy and paste this code into your address bar and hit “Enter.”
javascript:self.moveTo(0,0);self.resizeTo
(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight); - Go to Bookmarks > Add Bookmark
- Name your bookmark “Full Screen”
- Select “Bookmarks Bar” from the dropdown
- Click “Add”
- Enjoy your new bookmark!
This shortcut is useful also on Firefox and other browsers where “display full screen” feature is not available by default.

thanks for the great tip.
an alternative tweaks could be to customize the code to suit a specific need such as defining the window rectangle size and leave a little space between the menu bar and the top of the window as well as the leftmost (horizontal beginning) of the screen and the left of the browser window:
Example:
javascript:self.moveTo(20,20);self.resizeTo(1280,1024);
