I need a button to turn the browser to full-screen mode to run some eye 
exercises:

http://emf.neocities.org/ix/eyeExercises.html

I've found some code on the web that does this for the current page, but 
returns to browser to normal screen when clicking on a link:

function requestFullScreen() {
   var el = document.body;
   // Supports most browsers and their versions.
   var requestMethod = el.requestFullScreen ||
       el.webkitRequestFullScreen
       || el.mozRequestFullScreen || el.msRequestFullScreen;
   if (requestMethod) {
     // Native full screen.
     requestMethod.call(el);
   } else if (typeof window.ActiveXObject !== "undefined") {
     // Older IE.
     var wscript = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
     if (wscript !== null) {
       wscript.SendKeys("{F11}");
     }
   }
}

How can I make it stay in full screen when you click on a link, like 
when you press F11?
