allowfullscreen
an HTML attribute for the iframe tag

Can I use allowfullscreen without the allow attribute?

Answers:

  • Yes, you can use the allowfullscreen attribute in an <iframe> tag without the allow attribute. The allowfullscreen attribute is a boolean attribute that indicates whether the iframe is allowed to be displayed in full-screen mode. If present, it enables fullscreen capabilities; if omitted, the iframe will not have this capability.

    Here’s an example of how you can use allowfullscreen:

    <iframe src="https://example.com" allowfullscreen></iframe>
    

    In this case, the allowfullscreen attribute signifies that the iframe can be expanded to full-screen mode. However, keep in mind that using the allow attribute provides more granular control over what features are allowed within the iframe. For example, you can use the allow attribute to specify permissions for features like autoplay, camera access, etc.

    So while allowfullscreen can function on its own, adding the allow attribute can enhance security and functionality as needed.
