How do I stop firefox from ever going to full screen?

more options

Quite often I accidentally double click on a video or a picture and Firefox decides it means I want to go to full screen. In my case it never does. I have never wanted to use full screen for anything in a browser and yet several times a month it decides by itself to go full screen. There is after all a reason I am using a computer and not a tablet(multiple windows).

So how do I stop Firefox from ever going to full screen mode regardless of what happens in Windows?

I have tried doing searches both on search engines, extensions and Firefox help site but all results seem to just point at the opposite solutions of always being full screen.

被選擇的解決方法

I can't think of an example where double-clicking an image or video causes it to go full-screen. On the other hand, I am very familiar with full-screen buttons on video player toolbars. If you don't want that kind of full-screen -- the kind that webpage scripts can invoke -- try this:

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.

(2) In the search box in the page, type or paste full and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the full-screen-api.enabled preference to switch the value from true to false

Did that do what you need?

Thank you. Seems to help. So it was just a large number of misbehaving web sites then.
