Topic: custom interface for "hidden" forums

I want to add a couple of custom interfaces for certain forums, for example:
A documents forum that users/guests can't read throught the normal forum interface, only via my my "documents.php"-file which would present the data a bit diffrent from a normal forum view (first post as text which you can give comments on).
Also it should be possible to search this forum, but be given a link to documents.php?id=51 etc.

If a make the forum so that moderators can do everything, users and guest can reply but not post new or view, then it should work, right?
But how could i get the search to include this forum, and make it viewable throught "documents.php"?
Any ideas?

Re: custom interface for "hidden" forums

why would you want to make it documents.php rather than viewtopic.php?

Re: custom interface for "hidden" forums

Becasue it would add quite much to the file-size of viewtopic.php if i where to add my code. The whole point would be not to have the same style as a forum, but rather like a normal page with text that you can give comments on.
