[themes] Modules extending themes functionality

[Marek Sotak]

The jquery actually has a click function for a.href with specified class.
This can be for sure in theme but then it calls something like
mycallback/admin/build, etc... which is an ajax call, so i need to get only
content, not whole page.

So the module has a menu item, mycallback% where it takes the wildcard, gets
the menu item for that (so if mycallback/admin/build will be called it will
take admin/build) and calls the function from menu router item
(page_callback) with arguments. Then I am just printing output of this
function and exiting (standart ajax method).

Can't do this in theme though.
