How can loop be modified to show only content of page? (1 post)

    I've created a page through WP admin and I want page to only display what I put in the content area. I'm pretty sure I should use something like this - <?php the_content(); ?> - but I'm not sure of the specifics.

    If I use the Loop from index.php (starkers) the content of the page displays but the "page name," "posted on, "author," "comments," etc are all included. I just want the content from page without the other stuff.

    I've tried this:

    <?php query_posts(); the_post(); ?>
    
        <?php the_content(); ?>
    
    <?php wp_reset_query(); ?>

    It seems to work, but I'm not sure if it's the "correct" way to do it. I don't want to use something sloppy if there's a better way.

    I've also tried this:

    <?php the_post(); ?>
    
            <?php the_content(); ?>
    
    <?php wp_reset_query(); ?>

    I tested both and they seem to work the same. Are there any advantages to one over the other?

    Thank you.
