To me full screen mode for video would not alter the browser window size, instead it would cover the screen in a new window and draw just the video into that. The browser window would be left untouched below (though the video may no longer be rendering into it). I would also like to be able to drag the full-screen video to a secondary monitor, switch back to the browser window and keep browsing (perhaps in another tab or read the rest of the page). The video would keep playing full-screen on the other screen until I closed the originating tab, the video ends, or I stop playback. - Nicholas. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
