  Hi,

i am wondering if there is a way to know the current context of the 
request and render a template related to it

In frameworks (like zend or symfony), you can have views related to 
current context
ex :
node.tpl
node.ajax.tpl

* In ajax context i want to render the node in an overlay with a close 
button and no layout
* If i access this same node in normal http request, i will have the 
page layout with all menus ( and no element related to ajax load )

What must i do to achieve this ? is it possible ?

Thanks for for sharing a little of your drupal experience


I currently use drupal 7 beta


ps: I know drupal is not a framework :-)
