web application browser area

I have a web application that needs to be displayed in the browser such that
it takes up the *whole* window, i.e.browser's back/forwards buttons and
menus etc shouldn't be displayed. How can this be done?

Thanks.

You'd need to use client-side code to open a new window with no menus etc.

Be aware though that you may run into issues with pop-up blockers, and some browsers allow users to prevent opening of new windows
with no controls (back, forward, statusbar, addressbar etc). Also, "back" and "forward" actions are still available via context
menus and keyboard shortcuts.

Unless this is for an intranet environment, you might want to re-evaluate your "need" for a no-chrome window.
