make Dolphin page with no header block or nav?

Hi - I would like to display my browseMusic.php page without the top section - the banner and the nav menu etc.

Preferable with only the main body block and nothing else. No footer either.

I thought to make a copy of browseMusic.php and try removing code that calls for the top sections...

I am not a coder at all.

I tried removing - require_once('inc/header.inc.php'); but that breaks the page.

What I am trying to do is to use an iframe in an html page to just display the body block of the browseMusic page. (or perhaps other pages)

Is there a way to do this?

If so - can it work so that clicking to go to page two of the music files loads page 2 within the iframe properly.

Thanks

Anyone? Come on I know you know the answer to this... or is it too hard?

Thanks in advance

I have been dieing for a reason to do this, just for shits and giggles.  Here it is and this can be used in multiple ways guys, not just to eliminate a header.

Open browseMusic.php

You will note a line it is calling:

$_page['name_index'] = 82;

Change it to:

$_page['name_index'] = b82;  (**Don't save yet if your site is a production site, just change and let it sit while you do the rest of this.)

Next, open your file editor to a new file:

Input the following code into the file:

__include _header2.html__

 __page_main_code__

__include _footer.html__

Save the page as page_b82.html  (please note, you must save this as a .html file, this is why you use tools like Notepad++ as it will help you do these things.) to a location you can easily find it. 

Next, open a new file in your text editor and input this into it:

 __includebase _header.html__

  
 <!-- body -->
  <div class="bodyBlock">

Save this file as:

_header2.html  (please note again must be .html)

Now upload the 2 files you just created to your server templates/templ_uni/ directory  (you'll see lots of page_#.html files there already)

Next, save your musicBrowse.php file

Load your page.  You now have yoursite.com/browseMusic.php with no header information at all and still displaying properly. 

***Only test on Dolphin 6.1.4 

Thanks again - cant wait to try it out but gotta catch some zzz first.

Thanks that worked. Only problem is that the main site background pic is showing through the normally white background of the browseMusic.php page.

You can see what I mean here http://www.oneearth.ws/browseMusicOnly.php

Any ideas?

I also discovered that if I remove the line __include _footer.html__

then despite having a properly paid for and registered Dolphin I get a message telling me I dont have the right to remove the footer. I presume this means that a small amount of time is being taken while the page checks if my licence exists and for some reason fails to find it?

I will contact Boonex about this one...

Thanks again

Mydatery,

Could this be used to make a register page with no header?   I want to call the register page from another application and posted about it a while back but no one answered.  Would this same procedure work with join.php?

Rob,

If I follow your question correctly, this would work to create a join page with no header, however it would still create the profile on the sites database, not the database of the site it was navigated from.  Let me clarify because that sounds confusing as all get out:

If your_site.com calls the member to come to a join page at your_domain.com and you use this to dump the header/nav menu off the page then when the member hits the submit button at the bottom of the page it would still create the profile on the site your_domain.com and not on your_site.com 

If that is what your trying to do, then yes, this would create a join page with no header/navigation menu at the top.

I didn't word that post very well but thanks, this did answer my question.  In my case, I was simply going to call the join.php file without the header from the same domain in a frame system where there there is already a menu system, however this approach could be useful in other situations as well.
