hello there.My problem is that when i go to full screen i have my tabs bookmarks and address line taking to much space on the upper part of the screen.I had the same problem with the previous version of firefox but was able to fix it by upgrading to os x 10.8.1 but with the new firefox 15 the problem emerged again.I want to be able to view only the page on full screen and no tabs or anything else.

Thanks in advance

Hi ps3rules,

go to about:config and find browser.fullscreen.autohide , then double-click on it to make it TRUE(probably ou have it fsalse) or right -click on it select Toggle to make it TRUE. Exit firefox and restart it.


thank you
