[Vtigercrm-developers] viewer - exclude default wrapper (menu etc)

[Richard Hills - Technologywise]

Thanks Alan, this is actually what I am doing.

The trick was that my module was using it's own template already, but 
this was always wrapped with the header/footer from generic templates. 
This was solved by overriding the preProcess and postProcess methods
