Turn off JIRA header and footer for velocity template?

[Mitch]

Hello all,

This maybe a silly quesiton but so far I have failed to work it out! I am writing a plugin and want to have a page open in a fancybox jQuery element which I have done, similar to the EditIssue box in Jira 5. The problem is the velocity page I load is always wrapped in the defualt Jira page (so the effect is a jira page within a jira page!). I have tried editing the tempalte in different ways, but always the same result.

The page is currently a webwork resource with a template file and a corresponding action class. Ideally I would like it to remain this way (rather than going down a jsp route) . So my quesiton is basically is there a way to achieve this? Or am I going up a blind alley?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Mitch

Take a look at this: https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/Changes+to+markup,+CSS+and+Decorators+in+JIRA+5.0

You probably need a <metaname="decorator"content="popup"/> or <metaname="decorator"content="none"/> depending on whether you want resources or not.

Thanks Florin that's exactly what I was looking for :-). I have seen the page you suggest breifly in the past but totally forgot about it. A1
