I have an online catalog that I use to sell items.

Is there a way for me to use the header and footer from vbulletin while placing a totally different URL in the middle? Basicly im just looking for a way to call an outside page into the vbulletin page.

Read the vBulletin API Basics how-to. It's telling you everything about creating your own custom vB page.

With the use of that tutorial, create a basic custom page with a template for the content.
Use the following code for the template:

HTML Code:

$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
$headinclude
<title>$vboptions[bbtitle]</title>
</head>
<body>

$header
$navbar

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" 

align="center">
<tr>
<td class="tcat">Online Catalog</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt1"><iframe src="http://www.yoursite.com/online-catalog/index.php"></iframe></td>
</tr>
</table>

$footer
</body>
</html>

The iframe tag is used to display a site (online catalog) in a site (custom vBulletin page). Ofcourse you need to change the iframe source link to the real url of your online catalog. More information about the iframe tag (adding a border to it, making it larger/smaller, ...) is avaiable here.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
