setting style for custom page

take this simple "vB integrated" script for example:

PHP Code:

<?php

  include("global.php");
  eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("template_name")."\");");

?>

i want to make it so when users visit this page it will use a different style... just like when you set a forum to use a different style.

i have tried adding this code to the script (4 is the id for both the template set and replacement set i want to use):

PHP Code:

$templatesetid = 4;
$replacementsetid = 4; 

this doens't work. the page will use the replacement set i specify but not the template set... the result is a messed up looking page (template and replacement sets crossing).

ideas?

Try this?

PHP Code:

$styleid=4; 

Making the replacement and template 4 as a style with id 4. If you put &styleid=4 at the end of the URL it works for sure.

actually, i tried $styleid also... didn't work.

yes, i could set the style in the url but i don't want to do that because that sets a styleid in the user's cookie and makes everything that style. i experimented with this a while back and it caused intermitant style changes when browsing my forums until i nuked my cookie and relogged in.

so i would rather set it in the script itself.
