I need to customize selected pages in a D7 site so that the DOCTYPE is changed from the RDFa and the default styles/css from Drupal are removed/not loaded -- so html.tpl.php needs to be overridden. I've tried a number of ways all of which have failed. I was able to change the page.tpl.php to use a custom node type for this but I am stymied with html.tpl.php.Any suggestions appreciated.

What have you done so far? You should only need to copy html.tpl.php to your theme directory and clear the cache.

Sorry if I wasn't clear. I need the custom html template only on certain nodes. I have been able to set a custom page template for 'page--type--lab.tpl,php' for nodes with content type 'lab'. I need something like an 'html--type--lab.tpl.php for these nodes. I know I can set up using each individual node as in 'html--node--16.tpl.php' but this doesn't make sense with 20 or so nodes for this content type.

Ahh I see what you mean. I've not tried this yet, so I don't have the answer. But did it not work with html--type--lab.tpl.php?

Try something like this:

template.php:

function yourthemename_preprocess_html(&$vars) {
  if ($node = menu_get_object()) {
    if($node->type == "lab") {
      $vars['theme_hook_suggestions'][] = 'html__lab';
    }
  }
}

Now copy http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules--system--html.tpl.php/7/source code into html--lab.tpl.php file and modify it. Dont forget to clear cache.

Awesome! Thank you very much @Iztok. I had been trying to make it work using the array similar to:

function peachfluid_preprocess_html(&$variables) {
if (isset($variables['node'])) {  
    $variables['theme_hook_suggestions'][] = 'html__type__'. $variables['node']->type;
  } 
}

I was able to make the above work for peachfluid_preprocess_page. You saved me much frustration. Thanks again!

Include the following inside template.php!

function yourtheme_preprocess_html(&$variables) {
  // If on an individual node page, add the node type to body classes.
  if ($node = menu_get_object()) {
    $variables['theme_hook_suggestions'][] = 'html__'. $node->type;
  }
}

Now you can create your html--your_content_type.tpl.php

Thought this might help anyone trying to make custom html.tpl.php by using you path alias. Place this code in your template.php.

function YOURTHEME_preprocess_html (&$vars) {
	if (module_exists('path')) {
    $alias = drupal_get_path_alias(str_replace('/edit','',$_GET['q']));
    if ($alias != $_GET['q']) {
      $template_filename = 'html';
      foreach (explode('/', $alias) as $path_part) {
        $template_filename = $template_filename . '__' . $path_part;
        $vars['theme_hook_suggestions'][] = $template_filename;
      }
    }
  }
}

Hi,

i tryed

function d03_preprocess_html (&$vars) {
  if (module_exists('path')) {
    $alias = drupal_get_path_alias(str_replace('/edit','',$_GET['q']));
    if ($alias != $_GET['q']) {
      $template_filename = 'html';
      foreach (explode('/', $alias) as $path_part) {
        $template_filename = $template_filename . '__' . $path_part;
        $vars['theme_hook_suggestions'][] = $template_filename;
      }
    }
  }
}

'd03' is the name of my theme. The path is /go and i named the file html__go,tpl.php.

Cleared the cache.

But is doesn't work...

Can anybody help me please?

Oh, i see. I think it's only working for nodes.

Is there a way to get it working for a view?

Thanks for that code.

I ran into a problem when I had a node named find-a-vet. The '-' character caused a problem, so I modified the above as follows

function YOURTHEME_preprocess_html (&$vars) {	
	if (module_exists('path')) {    
		$alias = drupal_get_path_alias(str_replace('/edit','',$_GET['q']));    
		if ($alias != $_GET['q']) {      
			$template_filename = 'html';      
			foreach (explode('/', $alias) as $path_part) {        
				$template_filename = $template_filename . '__' . str_replace('-','_',$path_part);        
				$vars['theme_hook_suggestions'][] = $template_filename;      
			}    
		}
	}
}

So, for my node, the template file required was html--find-a-vet.tpl.php.

Maybe it is bad practice to have a '-' in an alias, but I thought I would mention it just in case anyone else had the problem.

        $vars['theme_hook_suggestions'][] = $template_filename;
      }
    }
  }
}

...nothing works. Very frustrating! Can anyone please help???

Did you clear your cache after adding each of those?

...ok, I have no idea why it suddenly worked. I had been doing the same thing over and over for days with no success, but it just worked out of the blue...very strange. This is the one that finally worked:

Here's a detailed explanation of the steps I went through to make it work:

Wow - Themeless Nodes looks very useful!
( I am developing on Mac with Acquia Drupal installed; yup -clearing cache with drush after each change; Drupal 7.16)

I have a custom module that does one simple page_callback, like this:
$content = array(
'#markup' => '

.... ... more pretty complex markup....

';
return $content;
- As a drupal page, it renders but the default theme interferes and squidges stuff around.
- That same complex html runs perfectly when simply called to a browser as index.htm

I've tried overriding the default theme with a node.tpl.php and a page.tpl.php
OR is there a way to make Themeless Node work for full page rendering?

with much appreciation for your thoughst on this -

I was reading this to see if I can override the html to remove the site's main theme for a section that I was asked to add. Is it possible to override the html.tpl.php for a custom module that has a set of pages
