view auto change to full screen mode

Guest

Hi, when I launch the Internet Explorer 6.0, the start page appears as usual.
If I go to the next page then, the view change from the old standard view
automatically in a Full Screen-Mode. This Full Screen Modus is of cause going
back to the standard screen after pressing F11, but it is a bit annoyingly to
do so. Which kind of settings do I have to change for overpower or remove
this automatically step? Thanks for your assistants. Willy

Hi,
Try these steps...
1. Open a webpage. Stretch it out to fullsize. Don't use maximize.
Choose any link on that webpage and right-click> open in a new window.
Stretch that second window out to the desired size- don't use maximize.
Close the first IE window. Then close that second resized window.

2. Right-click the IE icon on the Start Menu, choose Properties.On the
Shortcut tab> Run, select Normal Window.

3. If running Windows XP, download and run the REG file at
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/IEFAQ.htm#IEMax (last line.)

Hope this helps,

What is "the start page"? What is "the next page"?

Try changing your Home page to About:Blank?
(Then there will be no "next page" from it.) ; )

Hi Don,
many thanks for your investigation, but the recommended steps did not fix it
as requested. I tried it a several time and did also - just to make sure - a
clean up of the IE cach - deletion of the coockies and all that.
Yes I have XP in use and downloaded this REG file from in the last line.
Additional:
A couple of weeks ago, I was able to fix it by a simple step "Delete all the
temps, coockies and offline temp files" and it was fine, but just a day or
two late, this issue starts up again. :-(

Well, if you have any further idea, please let me know. It is not in a rush.

Hi Robert,
I mean by ‘start page’ the home page you can set up in: IE > Menu: Tools >
Internet Options … > Tab: General > Area: Homepage > the address field. By
next page do I mean any other page, which is connected with the homepage in
any kind of hyperlink.
I tried it with a blank page, but that is not that. It is not depend in any
address or page.
As I already wrote to Don, I was able to fix it temporally by cleaning up
the Cookies and temps. But that was just a part time. Any idea?
Thanks Willy

Well of course that is how a Home page is defined and set.
What is the link you are using?

any kind of hyperlink.

address or page.


There are no links in About:Blank so clearly your symptom as described
as far could not be produced by using About:Blank as your Home page.

Are you now saying that when you go back to try the link to what was previously
your home page and then use a link on it to reproduce your symptom?
Then it would appear that that particular page is at the root of your symptom.
What is the link?

As I already wrote to Don, I was able to fix it temporally by cleaning up

Not unless you can describe your symptom better.
I do not have a clear idea of what you are doing or seeing.
