Right now I'm using Dreamweaver CS3 and it only wants to publish pages to the server that use existing extensions so it doesn't seem that I can just call a page "portfolio.html" and expect it to be www.foo.com/portfolio.html.Thanks in advance!

i concur with jason. In Dreamweaver, you simply change the name or extension of a page and if there are any other pages in your website that link to this page, dreamweaver will show a popup window asking if you want to update all the links to reflect the new name. In your case you would choose yes to update.

OK that makes sense. But I tried to make a new page because there are only a 3 or 4 now and I need to make 5 and because there was not an existing page to "update to" it said it couldn't publish it. What do I do about that?
Just open an existing page and do File | Save As and give it a new name. Then use either Put or Check In (depending on how the local site is set up).
