How can I create a page to have only the top and bottom without the left and right navigations?

I know I could just copy the html, but that does not help. The page needs to be part of the system as I am using 2 languages and I'd like for it to be dynamic.

Please put your X-Cart version in your signature, we can't help you without it. Edit profile, enter version, enter help desk password, click the 'Always attach my signature:' box, save. Thanks!

ok, I have it now, sorry.

You could just create a static page, and then write an {if} statement that gets it to hide the left and right columns for that particular page. Is that what you have in mind?

static page link displays on menu and i don't want that

[balinor]

You can remove that easily.

how would I do that just for one or 2 pages, yet live it on for others?

[balinor]

Using a smarty {if} statement like this:

{if $smarty.get.pageid eq "1" or $smarty.get.pageid eq "2"}Display this{else}Display this{/if}

Replace 1 and 2 with the actual number of the static pages you want to hide the menus for.

You can "group" pages similar to Carrie's free category grouping mod, which then allows you to display/or not display any pages you want, wherever you want.

Assign a specific POS value to each of the pages you only want displayed in certain places. Something like this:
900, 901, 902 and so on for each of the "special" pages.

Then using codes like this in your /skin1/pages_menu.tpl or by copying that same template to something like /skin1/special_pages.tpl you can display them/turn them off at will:

{section name=pg loop=$pages_menu}
{if $pages_menu[pg].orderby lt "900"}
{$pages_menu[pg].title}
{/if}
{/section}
