How to make Fullscreen button on Php desktop

Question

I am experimenting with Php desktop, and so far all is great. How ever I need to be able to have a button that will make it go to fullcreen and out (not only maximalized). Is there a way to do it? Or is there a way to start the aplication in browser?

PHP desktop basically uses a browser (IE or Chrome). You can therefore use Javascript to go full screen. Like this:

<button id="goFS">Go fullscreen</button>
<script>
  var goFS = document.getElementById("goFS");
  goFS.addEventListener("click", function() {
      document.body.requestFullscreen();
  }, false);
</script>

PHP Desktop exposes API to javascript under the "window.phpdesktop" object. To go full screen call phpdesktop.ToggleFullscreen(), to undo call it again.

See example:
