making the browser window -full screen

[cityman]

i bought a new toshoba laptop so i am configuring it as i go along.

using win xp-when i am on the internet and go to a new site, the window is not large and does not cover the entire screen. there must be a way to default it to "full screen". i just have not discovered it yet.

what is the method??? and thanks.

thanks conan,
i was feverishly looking for a workaround for an hour or so, examining the xp system never thinking to do a search on this.

dumb am i, sorry and thanks for the help.

btw, the suggestion worked using the <shift> key.
