I was modifying the category pages and would like to know how to make the comments pages not using the same customwrapper of category. For example, i have cat1 as books. so there will be 10 links on each category. I have set cat1 to use a 120x600 ads on the left hand side bottom of the page. But since the viewcomment page is not so long, i would like to remove the ad from the viewcomment page instead of letting the ad spanning the whole page down at the bottom.
You can't, if you set a custom category wrapper it applies anywhere in the category.
It would probably be better in the first place to just use one wrapper with conditionals around the ad, but if you wish you can just put the conditional in the category wrapper to exclude the comments page. <IF {TID} is not viewcomments.tpl>banner</IF> should do it I think, but you might want to check what the value of {TID} is there to be sure.

Do i make this clear?

To make this clearer, I want to use the normal wrapper for comments pages instead of the custom wrapper of that certain category. How do i do that?
