How do I create a custom page in Joomla 1.5

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!

how to have a category blog and category list on the same page in joomla 2.5

I am trying to make it so that I can have a category blog that displays three articles, and one of those articles be a category list that will list some other recent new articles on my site. Is there any way of doing this in Core joomla or do I need a plugin?
Thanks,
Mike
You could use loadmodule to load a latest news or other module set to display the categories you want into one of the articles in your blog. Alternatively you could have an alternate layout that renders that module would need for an article.

Component part shown in joomla frontend

How do I display the form in the frontend in Joomla 2.5, just like the Create Article form shown in the frontend?
You can obviously create an form in an article but it will be pointless as the form will require PHP functions which cannot be written in an article.
Your best bet would be to develop a simple module which you can embed in an article or download a free form extension from the Joomla Extensions Directory.
