Mura CMS: dynamically change layout templates (e.g., Allow for a "View As PDF" link, or only open children of a calendar in a blank.cfm layout template ... this way you could open it in a modal window using shadowboxjs, etc.)

muraDynamicLayoutTemplate.cfc

component extends='mura.cfobject' {

	// drop this in your site or theme eventHandler.cfc
	public any function onRenderStart($) {

		// allow for a 'View As PDF' link (e.g., <a href="./?viewAsPDF=1">View As PDF</a>) 
		if ( IsBoolean(arguments.$.event('viewAsPDF')) && arguments.$.event('viewAsPDF') ) {
			arguments.$.content('template', 'pdf.cfm');
		}
		
		// open calendar events in a blank template
		if ( Right($.content('parentid'),3) != 'END' && $.content().getParent().getType() == 'Calendar' && $.content('type') == 'Page' ) {
			$.content('template','blank.cfm');
		}
	}

}

pdf.cfm

<cfdocument format="pdf">
	<cfoutput>
		<h3>#HTMLEditFormat($.content('title'))#</h3>
		#$.dspBody(body=$.content('body'),pageTitle='',crumbList=0,showMetaImage=0)#
	</cfoutput>
</cfdocument>

SOOOOO COOOOL!!!! Thanks Steve - you've saved me days.

… and if you're NOT using bootstrap add < cfset $.loadShadowBoxJS() > in you footer.cfm
