There are some browser games that are best played full screen, but I can't seem to find a way to keep the "helpful" menu from popping up over my game when the mouse hits the top edge of the screen. The best I can do is not play full screen, and detach the tab of my game to minimize the amount of tabs visible (and clickable) but there are still these "landmines" on the screen that actively sabotage playing the game without having the handicap of firefox taking over and messing with the screen.

Is there any way to completely disable the popups from a fullscreen mode, show no toolbars, tabs, or anything else (except when exiting fullscreen mode via the keyboard.) I want the mouse to have no interaction with changing the display except for the game itself.

Playing http://slither.io is a good example of what I'm talking about.

Thanks!

You can use code in userChrome.css to disable the fullscr-toggler.

Thanks, I had no idea what the feature was called (obviously, as my question didn't even describe it all that well) and would not have guessed it was that, or that it was configured there, and that reading the configuration is disabled by default.  :)

But solved it perfectly.... I wish I had asked months ago.

THANK YOU.
