If u are using Joomla 2.5

  1. you can use different color themes of the same template in different pages

    it is very easy:

    • goto Extensions>>Template manager>>click on the template name
    • then there is a section "Language & Page Assignments"
    • in that just add pages you want with different style and pick a style from "Profiles" column.

  2. for using different themes

    • click on them name
    • then select your page from "Menu Assignment" section.

In Joomla 1.5

Different themes can be used in different pages

goto Extensions>>Template manager>>click any theme name that u want in a page

then select your page from "Menu Assignment" section.

There is a simple way to achieve what you want. Joomla menu items have a parameter called Page Class Suffix. This allows you to add a CSS selector to your pages based on the menu item. You just need to use that so you can add page specific CSS so you can modify specific pages. Add this to your temaplate/index.php file:

</head>
<?php
   $menu = &JSite::getMenu();
   $active = $menu->getActive();
   $pageclass = "";
   if (is_object( $active )) :
     $params = new JParameter( $active->params );
     $pageclass = $params->get( 'pageclass_sfx' );
   endif; 
?>
<body id="<?php echo $pageclass ? $pageclass : 'default'; ?>">

Now all pages will have have either <body id="default"> or <body id="yourPageClassSuffix">. Combine this with specifying modules per menu item and you can completely customize any page within your site without having to use multiple templates.
