.htaccess - 31/01/2003 15:14

I've been working to learn how to use .htaccess files and I now have the process down pretty well. The problem is I don't know how to delete some of the files I was working on. How do I delete them from the server if I can't see them? Is it possible with FTP?

ps-the problem I always had was with the encryption. I just didn't understand how to do it. Then I found this. Very handy.

Depends on what FTP program you're using. Some of them hide files beginning with periods. If you have access to telnet/ssh into it, you can just do a 'ls -a' to see all files. Look for an option in your FTP program to show all files, or if you can type manual commands, do a "ls -a" to see them.

Alternately, since you know the file's name already, you should be able to do a ``del .htaccess'' without having to see the file first.
