"Websites" with LÖVE Webplayer

I have thought about something: Instead of playing around with HTML, CSS, PHP, SQL, Flash, Javascript and other things, why not just write the user interface of a website in Lua, and run it using the LÖVE Webplayer? I think that this will be much easier for many LÖVERS, and probably just for anyone with experience in Lua.
So... Is there any way to run the LÖVE WP in fullscreen(just filling out the content area of the brower)? Or is that impossible? Please leave some answers, as I REALLY want to know, and test this method of creating websites out.
Regards,
Anickyan

This was discussed before, and basically it boils down to this; The developers for love don't currently have an interest in porting love from one platform to another, and then maintaining the second branch.
That said, there's nothing stopping
YOU from making our dreams come true! As seen with the
love webplayer, this was a project mounted by ghoulsblade and company.
You will note that the love webplayer is not a total conversion, requires a bit of hard coding of variables, and doesn't support a lot of love 0.7.2's (it was based of this, not 0.8.0's) functionality (thus no full screen.) Nevertheless, live the dream!

I'd really like seeing this dream given wings. Personally I don't have the time nor the knowledge to make it come true but hey, somebody out there, listening to us: "shinjite soshite gambate!" [= japanese for "believe and do your best"]

It is possible to fullscreen the LÖVE WebPlayer quite easily, by editing the source code.
