I’m having an issue with full screen mode in firefox (f11) when I’m watching google videos as well. I can f11 into full screen, but I can’t get back out unless I close the window.

I’m very impressed too – but mine is still not working. I have been right/clicking on the ‘Google Reader’ heading which I have, and open in a new tab; there I can see all my RSS feeds as regular. Not the same but it works

Ok… so is it just me, or are you all REALLY IMPRESSED that someone on the Google Reader development team was reading this and just did a code change to a Web 2.0 app used by millions of people!?!?!?!?!

Now *THAT’S* pretty cool!

It works for me in Firefox now! Thanks for listening, Google.

I just tried it with Opera 9.25 and F11 still doesn’t work at http://www.google.com/reader

The bug should be fixed now, a refresh should pick up the change (though you may need to wait longer if you’re using Gears, since that does its own caching).

F key is not working for me either but I am able to go into full screen mode by going to View–>Full Screen. Then to exit I just select the minimize button in the top right of the window.

I’ve had problems today with reader in Firefox on Macbook. The “mark as as read” command has been working only intermittently today. Never experienced that before. Getting an “oops” error from reader.

i have three computers running firefox, two xp sp2 and one vista. on one of the xp machines and on my vista umpc, the f11 does not toggle the fullscreen mode when i’m in reader. on my other xp box, it works as advertised. on all my machines, f11 works for other sites.

Mihai, just don’t put Google Reader back in “beta” status. ;) Just kidding; thanks for reading and also for responding!

Sorry about that, this is a bug that seems to affect Reader in Firefox. We’re investigating.

It doesn’t work properly in Opera 9.25alpha the the moment either.

I think the webpage has captured the F11, not allowing it through to the browser.

If I select full screen from the pull down menu (or an icon) I can enter full screen, but to exit full screen I need to select a link (such as gmail) which takes me to a page where F11 works…

very strange!

That is odd. Works for me right now. But I will say that there have been times when I was using Google Reader where the navigation keys (N+P) did not work for me at one point and then one day later, they did work. Go figure….

Hopefully it’s just being temperamental. :-)
