I can find plenty of JavaScript code to put the photos in motion but am stuck on how to cover the entire screen and replace the browser controls with a small strip of universal symbols for recorders (i.e. play, rewind, stop, restart, etc.).

In my head tag I coded: <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> <!-- // function slide_show(){ window.open("slideShow.htm", "_self", "fullscreen=yes"); } // --> </SCRIPT> In the body I coded: <form> <input type="button" Value="Click here" onClick="slide_show()"> </form> Everything else works as expected: I don't get any Run Time errors and pressing the "Click here" button brings up my HTML slide show in the same window.
