How to create new page in magento site

Question

I am trying to create a new page in magento ,in which I have to add some html and javascript. For this ,I have created a module . Contents of -> app\\code\\local\\CompanyNam

Answer 1

Insert to module's config.xml:

<frontend>
...
  <layout>
    <updates>
      <helloworld>
        <file>helloworld.xml</file>
      </helloworld>
    </updates>
  </layout>
</frontend>

Next add layout file app/design/frontend/default/default/layout/helloworld.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<layout version="0.1.0">
  <helloworld_index_index>
    <reference name="content">
      <block type="helloworld/index" name="helloworld_any_block" template="helloworld/index.phtml" />
    </reference>
  </helloworld_index_index>
</layout>

Eventually add phtml file app/design/frontend/default/default/template/helloworld/index.phtml with any content.
