Magento Styling Products in a Particular Category

In Magento, how would I be able to treat products in a particular category differently?Lets say, I have one category "Specials" and I want to have a bit different presentation of its products from the rest of the catalog products.I initially thought about hooking custom styles up to the category class name that gets attached to BODY element. That, however, does not seem to be fool-proof, since if you directly access those products, they dont always show up as in that category (assuming cookies or sessions have a say in this) and custom styling is ignored.Also though about assigning custom layout template to that category, but I am using those as layouts and not styles and I dont want to mix up the uses to avoid issues in the future.Anyone had this concern before? Thanks for the help!
