Can any one help me to create blank page without any theme components.

Answer 1

You can make a copy of page.tpl.php in your theme and rename it according to the Template Suggestions for Drupal 6.

Your theme should be in a directory like site/all/themes or sites/default/themes.

So if you wanted a custom page.tpl.php for http://yoursite.com/path/to/override, your file name will end up being something like page--path-to-override.tpl.php.

Answer 2

In Drupal 6 you likely want to override page.tpl.php for your theme; and remove the "header" and "footer" HTML elements.

See the source here: https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules%21system%21page.tpl.php/6

This file outputs your page's full HTML structure. So you can tweak it for content type (using a theme suggestion) as need be.

In Drupal 7 to get do the same thing you would tweak html.tpl.php.
