I have 2 separate, but related questions:

1) Is it possible to have a single page of my website appear with a different theme than the rest of the website (perhaps as a copy of my index.php), and

2) Is it possible for this alternate theme to be placed in a separate folder than the "layout" folder.

I am asking because I want the users of my website to be able to choose between 2 themes for most of the site, but I also want to set up a specific page on the site with an entirely different color scheme. The site is acttour.com and I would like there to be a page for acttour.com/thunderroad.php (does not yet exist) that is specifically for the Thunder Road race track with Thunder Road colors (orange and green). Can this be done?

1) No, but I imagine it would be possible to hack something together that would fit what you need.

2) Same answer as above, but a bit more difficult.

As a possible (not tested) solution to 1) you can design thunderroad.php as follows:



As I said 2) would take a bit more work (including possible changes to template.class.php).

There's a hack that may help here (search for "chameleon"), or maybe the technique described here would be enough.

thanks for the input #1Dirk. I'll give something a try and let you know in a few days.
