'folder_contents' is its own "page-level" method, and hence
includes 'standard_html_header' and footer already.  You could
"customize" it (e.g., from 'portal_skins/generic' into
'portal_skins/custom'), to read:

 <dtml-var standard_html_header>
 <dtml-var folder_contents_main>
 <dtml-var standard_html_footer>

Put the current code for 'folder_contents' in the new method,
'folder_contents_main'.  You will then be able to include the
new method on member pages.
