I've always been a big fan of Firefox. The Firefox full screen (F11) mode that covers the Windows toolbar at the bottom of the screen and removes the top window bar is great when reading space is at a premium like on a small laptop. There are times when I want the same look as the Full Screen mode but want the Windows toolbar visible at the bottom so I can quickly switch tasks.
I added a plugin called userChromeJS that allowed me to get rid of the top window bar but leave the Windows toolbar at the bottom. Once you install the plugin add the following function to the userChrome.js file.
function hideChrome() {
if (navigator.platform == "Win32") {
window.moveTo(0,0);
window.maximize();
document.getElementById("main-window").setAttribute('hidechrome','true');
// preserve small area for taskbar to appear
window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth, screen.availHeight-2);
} else {
document.getElementById("main-window").setAttribute('hidechrome','true');
window.moveTo(0,0);
window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth, screen.availHeight);
window.maximize();
}
}
hideChrome();
userChrome.JS is located in your userprofile\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.default\chrome directory.
