 * I’m not really understanding what you mean. You want to apply a design to a page
   in a folder outside of WordPress?
 * You probably just need to do that in dreamweaver or similar, otherwise try and
   state your question again as I am not understanding.

 * Don’t you mean you want a WordPress Page? It’s static and does not display WordPress
   posts.
 * Be sure you have pretty permalinks on (so your pages would look like this: [http://yourserver.com/static-page/](http://yourserver.com/static-page/)),
   and then create a new page. Give it the slug portfolio. You can then access it
   using the URI: [http://yourserver.com/portfolio/](http://yourserver.com/portfolio/)
 * Is that what you mean?

 * It may be that mod_rewrite is turned off on your server? That causes WP to reject
   any URI that doesn’t also have /index.php/ sandwiched in there. I believe there’s
   a thread about it, just search for keywords index.php and permalinks.
