The header and footer are apart of your Xoops theme.. If you are just showing a report then your module could have to do all the rendering of the page directly. Because of the design of xoops I am unsure if this will cause you problems or not.
You COULD however also modify your theme to show or not show the footer and header depending on what the URL is or some other method. This would be the best method but how you do this depends on how your module is being used.
