Generate an HTML fragment (without headers)

[kwakuduahc1]

This is more of help wanted. I have combed through the documentation but I cannot find the exact YAML syntax to generate an HTML without the headers. I want to generate standalone content that can be embedded into a parent HTML file which is not necessarily generated with quarto.

Currently, I can generate and the file manipulates it into another file but I am looking at automation.

Say I have a website in which I want to embed a quarto output.

Thanks.

You should be able to set standalone: false however:

(1) This doesn't appear to current work correctly! (I'll fix that soon)

(2) It isn't well documented on our site (that will be resolved with this once its fixed: quarto-dev/quarto-web@f714bda

I am going to move this to v1.2 as there is quite a bit to untangle to get this right. In the meantime I suggest that you use minimal: true as an HTML format option (as described here: https://quarto.org/docs/output-formats/html-basics.html#minimal-html) which will cut down dramatically on the Quarto features included in the HTML and make it easier to lift/extract to another publishing context
