Hi,
Could the 'plain' template be what you are looking for?
It allows you to get the rendered content of a page without headers,
footers, sidebars etc... with a simple http request. You can specify
the template with the xpage param on the query string.
For example, here is the xwiki.org homepage put through the plain template:
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome?xpage=plain
I use this template to asynchronously grab content from other wiki
pages & dump it within divs in the current page, which I think is
similar to what you want to do.
If you wanted raw content, you can even do:
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome?xpage=plain&raw=1
Check out the 'plain' template code to understand how this works (
http://openmpt.xwiki.com/xwiki/templates/plain.vm ) and remember you
can create custom templates if this doesn't quite suite your needs.
Cheers,
Robin.

Hi,
I'm attempting to do a little AJAX-type stuff and I need a way to grab
just the contents of a particular page without all the headers, sidebars and
footers, but with the standard rendering (tags, plugins, etc) working.
Basically, if I have a page "Main.testpage" containing this:
I am some [somelink>text].
I'd like to be able to make a javascript call to some url and get the
rendered page:
I am some <a href="somelink">text</a>.
(Notice there's no headers, menus, edit buttons, etc.)
I've been looking into the xwiki source. I was hoping there was something
like a "justcontents" action (ie
"http://sitename/xwiki/bin/justcontents/Main/testpage"),
but there doesn't appear to be.
I found the xmlrpc interface, but there's a few issues to overcome, one of
which is that I'd somehow have to get and store the username and password in
the javascript (on the client side) to make the login token for the
getPage() function.
If there is nothing simple built-in, and xmlrpc is the only way, is there a
good way around the password issue? (or even how to get the password)?
Anyone try something similar? Am I going about this in the entirely wrong
way?
Thanks,
-Tom
