Can't wait to see the first ad going fullscreen and locking my mouse...
- robhawkes 15y agoSecurity of these new features is something that is being taken very seriously. APIs like the Full Screen API and Mouse Lock API can only be invoked manually by a user, either by clicking something on the screen or pressing a key. It is also impossible for a website to take control of the Full Screen or Mouse Lock API without your direct knowledge. A big message appears at the top of the screen when in full screen mode and you can always exit it at any time by pressing the Esc key.
- SKoschnicke 15y agoThanks for making that clear. But making the user click on something is not really difficult. Don't get me wrong, I really love the possibilities this gives to web developers, I just wanted to point out that this will open yet another way to do harmful things, especially to novice users.
