How can I have my menu bar appear with my address bar in full screen mode?

more options

I use a netbook, so I really want to use full screen mode to save space. But it's very important to me to have quick access to the menu bar. How can I set it so that the menu bar appears along with the tabs and address bar whenever I move my mouse to the top of the screen?

Sir, You may hide all menu bars - namely menu, navigation and status bars - because they do tend to take valuable screen space.

all you need to do is to put a finger everytime on 'alt' key to make the menu bar reappear.

that's a little boring but eventually comes with practice.

also set your homepage as to some search engine - to get rid of navigation bar.

here again you need to perform an extra step of searching the address.

and when you have got rid of the two - Press F11 and that's it - your net book screen resembles an i-Max screen now.

All the best
