Internet Explorer 7 Question - Full Screen Feature

I should start by warning that I'm a computer Dilettante and have only
modicum of understanding of computers and their software. I have used
Internet Explorer 7 (Version 7.0.5730.11) since I bought this computer (a
Sony Desktop VGCRC210G - System Type X86-PC Running Operating System
Microsoft XP Professional - Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3 Build 2600)
about 2 years ago. Since I'm one of those users who doesn't touch the mouse
unless I have to, I almost exclusively use keyboard commands which I have
memorized. For that reason, I always selected under "View" from the menu
across the top of Internet Explorer, "Full Screen". When I bought the
computer Internet Explorer would display the entire webpage without any
menus showing unless I executed a keyboard command from the menus or the
mouse came close to the edge of the page at which time the menus would
emerge and vanish when no longer in use. A few months ago, the "Full
Screen" feature stopped working after one of Microsoft's infamous upgrades.
Does anyone know what I can do to restore the feature? Any assistance would
be appreciated. KM

Naturally I tried that, otherwise I wouldn't be posting here. KM

Sorry you've got bad eyes. Maybe you'll do better in your next lifetime.
Besides, the website is for kids and they love it in spite of the
lamentations of cranky old duffers. KM

Well, for God's sake post the URL of your website, so the rest of us can see
how it's done properly and to your elite expectations. I hope it's
something that will attract kids. KM
