Will Floatbox support viewing images or other content in Fullscreen-Mode, by triggering the corresponding functions of modern browsers?
See Facebook for example...
Fullscreen browser-view?

No, I don't think so. It's not implemented in all browsers, the existing implementations are inconsistent in both presentation and implementation details, and Webkit has random event handling failures after exiting full-screen mode. One of the design goals of Floatbox is that it works well and consistently across all browsers and full-screen behaviour certainly does not currently support that design goal.
There is of course nothing stopping you from implementing your own full-screen behaviour on your own site. The 'fbContent' element of an open floatbox could be the target element of the full-screen request. You could put a clickable widget to kick it off in a caption, header or footer. Full-screen support is already present for HTML5 YouTube and Vimeo videos, and Flash. |

Thanks, that's exactly the reason why I've asked. It wouldn't make any sense to implement this individually if floatbox would add such a feature in a few weeks
