I installed my directory in root so that I could call up the categories on my main site page which is index.php.
I want the index.php to follow a different style than the main part of the directory. How can I set the index.php page in the directory to say index2.php so that I can use a different style for the directory program and still have my index.php free for my use? The reason I wish to do this is to integrate my directory categories into my main page of my site, which is index.php, but like I said I want the main directory a different style.
Can anyone help? I hope I have explained this well. I did a search and didnt find anything on this.
I want to do the same thing, show my categories and search box on the main page of my site just like yahoo. is there a way to do that? I am able to display the search box but have no idea how to diplay the categories.

The method I used is not elegant and is not dynamic, but it works for me. Take a look at my site.

Just make it use a custom template and supress the wrapper (putting wrapper content, such as stylesheet specification, in the custom template).
