Directions for Full Screen on Safari
Apple has made a “Full Screen” feature for Safari available on its latest release of the Mac OS X Lion system. Safari can be placed in full screen mode with one click using this new feature. If you do not have the newest Mac OS X Lion release you can still place Safari in full screen mode. However, you will have to do it by using keyboard shortcuts and manually dragging the Safari window to occupy the full space of the Mac screen.
