View page / popup without template Joomla 2.5

So I wanted to create a popup in my custom Joomla component that is basically a whole page in itself not an alert box so I needed to create a page without template (header footer) showing and just what I want.

For example: <a href='index.php?option=my_component&view=popup_page'>Click here</a>

(I used jQuery plugin to open it up in a popup instead of new page)
To view this page without template, all you need to do is simply add '&tmpl=component', so in the above case the URL will simply become:

For example: <a href='index.php?option=my_component&view=popup_page&tmpl=component'>Click here</a>

Hope it helps someone :)
