(I saw another implementation of widgets last week running in a SMIL player on top of a webkit browser. I wonder how many there really are, and have been). > Afaik, the Fullscreen API you're referring to lets you take a DOM element > and make it full screen.

That's in the widgets P&C although it sounds like there is a goal to seperate config from packaging and be able to use live web content. That has been expressed before (and is the conceptual difference between widgets on the one hand appcache and the proposed JSON packaging manifest offers on the other, the rest being a matter of syntax and implementation quality). The place for that might be the native-web-apps community group. cheers -- Charles 'chaals' McCathieNevile Opera Software, Standards Group je parle français -- hablo español -- jeg kan noen norsk http://my.opera.com/chaals Try Opera: http://www.opera.com
