How not to be confined into content area... full size web app on Joomla

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17582860

Question

I am currently creating an Intranet ERP application that will integrate an already existing corporate Joomla 3.1 based web site.

The extension i made so far only has one default controller php file and everything is made using a JavaScript UI framework. (i.e. jqWidgets) So i am not using model, views, helpers.

The other php files are there to respond to the client side interface AJAX requests.

So i mainly need Joomla for the user authentication and session control features but i dont want it to confine my extensions output to the content area... i need the entire document surface... no menu, no module columns, no nothing !

Can it be done ?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Two ways

  1. component.php in the template will show only the component's output add &tmpl=component to your urls

  2. Make a custom template that only outputs the component

<html>
  <head>
          <!-- put what scripts stylesheets you need etc//-->
  </head>
  <body>
          <jdoc:include type="component" />
  </body>
</html>
