You can't. See that little mention of "ActiveXObject"? That's not supported by any modern browsers any more because of the security risks associated with using it.

You have no way of telling the browser to "fullscreen" at all.

I tested it with same chrome version you mentioned. Anyway I deleted my answer to avoid giving wrong information.

You can't. You have no control over the users browser window.
