I have a website here that I need to create a custom page where in I can call the header and the footer as well as the sidebar.
If you're going to do it in Wordpress its easy as this link says:
https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/template-files-section/page-template-files/page-templates/
However, Joomla is a bit different on this one. If I will try to add a new article I wont be able to customize the layout that I want. Let's say in the custom page I want to create I don't want the footer to show up and I want to add internal CSS on it which is possible on Wordpress custom page.
Any idea how do the same thing Joomla 1.5??
Thanks!

You can refer to this module.
I use VirtueMart. I need to add some content to product details page to specific DIV. I cant only change template. I need to do this by php because it will be Joomla plugin.
Look at the override system for customizing Joomla, it also applies to Virtuemart. You can add code or simple html to the product details page and place it in the templates HTML folder (where overrides go).
If you only wish to have this on some products, you can have that product details file named something other than default.php and then it will be available to select as the layout to use in the Virtuemart product edit screen.
I am using Magento, I change the footer by click "CMS/Static Blocks/Footer Links", but this change only apply to the home page, how do I make this change apply to the whole website?
Your homepage can youse one layout, and all of other pages can use different layout. For example: homepage has 1-column, and other pages - 2columns-left. First - go to CMS->pages->homepage. Open design tab and check, wich layout use your homepage. Second, in design tab, in xml-update can be overrided a homepage template. So you will code only home page template, and it will no affect other pages. If so - figure out, wich template is used on other pages (f.e. 2-columns-left.phtml), and change it too.
Im completely new to Joomla development. I need to develop Joomla plugin that adds static javascript to the footer of all the pages of a Joomla site. Also, the plugin would need to save 2 fields in database, and access these fields on per page basis. Also, Admin panel is needed.
Now, my questoion is, where do i start? Joomla plugin development is a big task, so if I can get some pointers as to where to start, it would be very supporting.
Im not asking for direct code, but just the right direction to start.
Thanx in advance....
Joomla has three types of extensions (what you refered to as plugin): components, modules and plugins, where each has a different purpose.
If you need to add javascript to all pages, the best place is your template. If you don't have access to template, just building an extension, then you have to create a content plugin.
If you need to create extension with admin panel which also works with database, you need to create a component. The best place to get started is tutorial Developing a MVC component for Joomla 2.5
I’m having a lot of trouble understanding how to create a module that will add an extra button to the shopping cart page. I found lots of info on payment modules and stand-a-lone page modules, but nothing for this.
I simply need to add a button underneath the regular “Checkout” button that can post item data to another website. I’ve created a module but can’t get Magento to recognize it and display the button on that spot. Any help would be greatly appreciated, even just sending me to an existing tutorial that I haven’t been able to find. Thanks.
A custom module is probably overkill for this. Module means a very specific thing in Magento. It's a mechanism for inserting custom code into Magento's standard operations. All you want to do is add a button to the cart page. Editing the file at
./base/default/template/checkout/cart.phtml
(substitute your theme/site name if not using base or default)
is the place you'll want to start looking. Just find the phtml file that corresponds to the place you want to insert your custom HTML and have at it.
