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.
