I am not sure if what I am trying to do is easy (and I need your prod in the right direction) or hard (and I need greater help) or impossible (in which case I need to start back at a new drawing board).

One of my sites (test.sag.org.au) is soon to have a new online library catalog added to it. This catalog will be hosted at a different server but the suppliers are trying to mimic the current site. They are asking for a URL for each of the site's dynamic heading (including horizontal main menu) and the site dynamic footer so that they can put these into divs above and below their html output.

The site uses RocketTheme's Afterburner template with some minor customization.

Approaches I have tried unsuccessfully so far:

1. Creating a new item on a hidden menu that has no component content and then turning off all the unwanted module output - but could not find a way to have a new menu item without any component content.

2. Editing a copy of the Afterburner template index.php file to remove the unwanted positions - but ran into "Restricted access" (and when I commented out the die (Restricted Access) line then ran into the $this object not being recognized

Any ideas appreciated...

I don't know exactly what you mean - what do you wnat to change urls from / to....?

Are you going to have part of the site coming from another machine? Then call teh machine library.yoursite.com etc and in eth SOA just point to teh correct ip address..?

PS - I don't think it's safe (guys?) to comment that out!!

Thanks for responding Audra. Sorry if I was not clear.

Have a look at sag.firstsoftwaresolutions.com/ - this is the current mockup.

Basically they want a URL to provide the dynamically generated banner area (including modules at the top and nav posns) and a separate URL to provide the dynamically generated footer area (incorporating modules at the current footer and debug posns). They will include these code segments into appropriate divs on their page.

Via a ProxyPass setting we expect the page to appear to be part of the sag.org.au site but for the OPAC app's email links to refer back accurately to the app (something that the Joomla wrapper approach would fail at, I am told).

Does that make more sense?
