Hi ...

I have folder design where i list the articles with paging (google paging), works fine, but am trying to insert ajax in the design, that when visitor click a page number a loading image will be showing up until the new content load up, this work fine also,

BUT ... with big problem ,,, its load the whole site again in the article listing div, so ... I need to query just the result of the paging list of this folder ... any idea how to do that ?

Thx in adavnced.

Say hallo to layout:
/layout/set/my_ajax_layout/orig_url

example:
http://ez.no/layout/set/my_ajax_layout/community/forum/setup_design/folder_listing_with_ajax_problem

To make it work you have to add a layout entry in layout.ini.

Alternative is of course to create a module that does the things you want in php, it will be faster but will take a lot more time to develop.

Since you really don't need a pagelayout, set settings/siteaccess/your_siteaccess/layout.ini.append.php to something like this:

[ajax]
PageLayout=
#Specify this is you want something different then text/html
#ContentType=text/xml

your content will be rendered directly!

OK .. I understand what you mean ,,, but its not the solution for the problem ..

I have folder where I list the articles with google paging style, each page have 30 article, now when user click on page number 3 for example he will wait to load the whole template to see page #3 ...

With AJAX ... will reload just the DIV content of the listing, also this work fine, but big error, that the new content will be reload it with whole pagelayout.tpl ..

how stop this ?

Go back and re read my suggestions.

In ez publish you have the pagelayout, and you have the content layout (node/view/full.tpl, full/folder.tpl and so on).
Since from what I understand, you only need the (x)html output from the content layout, so my quick and dirty suggestion was to disable the pagelayout in you ajax request.
Basicly your ajax request url will look like this:
/layout/set/ajax/path_to_folder/folder/(offset)/50

and the settings needed for layout: ajax is posted above.

Alternatively you can use a specific ajax pagelayout, with settings like this:

[ajax]
PageLayout=ajax_pagelayout.tpl

And ajax_pagelayout.tpl like this:

{$module_result.content}

But having a pagelayout like this is pointless, thats why I suggested not using pagelayout.
