Do you mean that you want a list of summaries, just like the first page, but you want the first article to be the full-length article and not a summary?
I cannot explain my damn problem....
I want my "Clicked on" article to have its box ( with colors and stuff ) different than the one on the index page.

Indeed, I really don’t understand what you want. Perhaps we can clarify things a little.
You have a "news" page, that displays a list of news items (using Ditto or NewsLising). Each news item has a title that is a link, a summary, and a "read more..." link, and maybe author and date information. Each item is styled in some way, with a box, links a certain color, etc.
Now when you click on one of the titles or "read more..." links, you go to the actual document containing the full article for that news item. Is it this page that you want styled in a certain way?

Make a new template for the individual news documents (basically just a copy of your main template; it can even use the same CSS file), with additonal HTML in the "main" section to match the chunk you’re using for the summaries page.
Where you put the [+summary+] placeholder tag in the summary template, use the [*content*] tag. The same with the other placeholder tags for the [*pagetitle*] or [*longtitle*] or whatever else you might want to display.
You can use
this snippet to get the date and author; it uses placeholders so you can place them where you want in the template with their [+...+] tags.
yeah... I know that it is possible with 2 templates, but heck I don’t want 2 templates... I make a change to one, then have to repeat for another... but tnx anyway.
Is it possible with TV’s ?
