How do you hide/unhide the browser tabs and URL address

Going to full screen is great, but I haven't figured out how to hide the browser tabs and URL. It is consuming valuable screen space.

@ eric_taylor Have you tried this ?

Fullscreen shortcuts:

Win: F11

Mac: command + shift + f

@eric_taylor, You can use below method to hide/unhide the browser tab and URL address.
1st Way:-  If you create an Application Shortcut on your Desktop, it will remove all tabs, menus, etc, and give you a completely clean view.

To do this:

1. Click the menu, and go to “More Tools” → “Add to Desktop…”
2. Make sure to check, “Open as window” (see screenshot)

This will create a shortcut on your desktop. When clicked, that shortcut will open as a clean window with no tabs, address bar, or menu options.

2nd Way:-  The closest you can get is by using a keyboard shortcut to enter Full-screen Mode. You can press F11 on Windows, and Cmd+Shift+F on Mac.

Safari for the Mac has a View menu option to "Always Show Toolbar in Full Screen." Unselect that option and all browser chrome goes away. There are similar options for Chrome and Firefox if I recall correctly.
