Good morning.
How do I get the default size of the window to fit the screen size when using Safari?
I remember a dropdown menu item from the past that did this for me, but I can't find it now.
Thanks for your time.

Should be able to drag lower right corner of window to the size you want. Window should stay this size. If not, can a web page alter the size of the window? Perhaps in the past a web page could, but I do not think now.
Safari is dated in Tiger. Use a different browser. I use TenFourFox Suggest:
TenFourFox -- It's a port of the latest FireFox to run on older hardware and software.
"World's most advanced web browser. Finely tuned for the Power PC."
-- works for me on 10.4. Supports 10.5

Turn on pipelining. This will allow Firefox to make simaltaneous requests to the server. Chrome has pipeling turned on. Some sites could fail to load with pipeling set on. The site will be old. See "Increase pipelining" in:

OmniWeb uses the lastest Safari framework. The open source WebKit. Other browsers like Safari and iCab use the OS version of WebKit. The OmniWeb downloaded dmg includes it's own copy of the latest WebKit.

Robert is right on the "window size" - Zoom is another matter - I have hated that Safari defaults to "Actual Size" (CMD+0[zero]) each launch for years!!!
I also use TenFourFox and absolutely love it! Outshines the most current Safari IMHO. (BTW, TFF DOES remember the view Zoom you last used)
