I am using drupal.I have to display the content of a page in lightbox2.(only the content not header,footer,menubar,sidebar etc).The url of that content node is http://mysite.com/node/1.
I have included the lightbox2 module and used the below code
<li>click here to see node content</li>
But the lightbox displays the whole page not only the content.i need only the text content.
One more option in that you can pass a parameter in get method for lightbox2 content.
Based on the parameter add condition in page.tpl.php
Not the best of the solution, but achievable.
Create a new page.tpl for node/1 and print only $content in this.
this way you will make sure you only get content and nothing else
I Agree with Vaibhav Jain, you can create a theme for the page without the header, left and right, footer. only the content and call that page inside the lightbox

We have a requirement to use the content zone of Orchard CMS to enter in html for a full screen landing page. We managed to get an unthemed page type using the Downplay.Orchard.Layout selector. The problem is that in using the content zone orchard automatically wraps html, head and body tags around it. We want to remove this content so we essentially have a blank page to start off with and then we can create our own html to display on the landing page. Is this possible to do for a single page and if so what would be the best way to do this?
You can have a URL alternate or you can use the new Disable Template part (1.8, i think)
I have done lots of URL alternates in the past. Pretty easy.
Just remembered, a question like this: Using Alternatives for Document.cshtml in Orchard CMS
removing the Wrapper (Document.cshtml) from your (Layout-url-...) and adding a new one, should do the trick.
And it might be better to use the placement.info, but thats my opinion...
Suppressing Wrappers and Placement.info
I'm trying to create a CSS documentation library in Orchard. I want to save a description, CSS snippet and HTML snippet against each content type. The first view would show the description and CSS and HTML code written out. The second view would show a preview of what the CSS and HTML look like rendered.
cssdocumentation.com/content/item1
cssdocumentation.com/content/item1/live-preview
I've created the content type and the first view. But I'm not sure how to create the second view. I can see if I can create the alternative URL I can use the Url Alternates module to create an overriding .cshtml
To create an alternative URL I've looked at the autoroute module but this only allows you to adapt a single URL (unless I'm missing something?) and I've looked at Alias UI but this forces me to manually create an alternative URL everytime I create a content item.
Is this possible in Orchard without writting too much C#? (I'm a frontend developer so I only dabble in the behind the scenes stuff)
Thanks for any help
Best solution is to do this within your own module. But as a secondary option instead of having a second page, combine this content with your first page and hide it with CSS. When the user clicks a button to navigate to the next step render the CSS/HTML result on the same page. You can do this in many ways, here are a few ideas:
Render the CSS/HTML result out straight away on the same page but hide it. Show it when the user clicks a button
using jQuery to render the result on the client side. More dynamic if you allow editing of the HTML and CSS.
Redirecting the user to the same page with specific url parameters which you can pick up in your alternate to modify the output.
I have an article set up in Joomla that displays Terms and Conditions for the site users. I would like this to show up in a shadowbox when a user clicks a link. Here is the current anchor text example:
Terms and Conditions
This works out great for displaying the entire web page, but what I would like to do is just display the article text on the page (plain with a white background). Is this in someway possible with shadowbox? If so, how?
If I'm understanding you correctly - you want to suppress the modules and other periphery from your 'page' when it is loaded in the shadowbox.
Add ?tmpl=component to the url of your link.
You can do this with a div element and css shadow effect.
How to show/hide div is explained here:

How you can add shadow is explained here:
http://placenamehere.com/article/384/css3boxshadowininternetexplorerblurshadow/
I believe there are some components to do this - but you may have to get creative to do it without pulling the whole page with an a href tag.
In the database there's a particular area that holds that specifically and you could write a little query to just pull that information specifically and put it in the shadowbox, but what that query would look like I'm not sure.
Sometimes I want to add some custom CSS or Javascript to a page but the HTML editor doesn't handle this gracefully, even when using text dialog.
I could use an alternate view but then I have to upload the view file to my host every edit.
Any ideas?
Ok, I found a module (Vandelay.Classy) that does exactly this.

I need to make a completely blank page in Drupal. If I don't give body of the page then it is showing the username and date as must. Is there any way to hide this information?
Or can I get the method which generates the contents of a page?
Thanks
Yes, you need to go to the admin panel. In Site building->Themes->Configure->Global Settings there's a box titled "display post information". Tick or untic the content types where you want to show/hide the info.
If you want to do it the hard way, then yes, there is a way of doing it in PHP. In your theme code, you can create a template for either your content type or even an individual page (node-24.tpl.php, where 24 is your node's NID). There, you can write anything you consider necessary, like:
<?php
echo "<h2>$title</h2>";
echo $content;
This will display only the page title and the page body, with no additional sweetness whatsoever :).
