Can't see my hidden files on my web-server. I though we used to be able to see and edit. What went wrong?

Hi Mike,
Under View select "View Hidden Files".:)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Is it possible that my web parent directory does not contain any hidden files including .htaccess? even after clicking Show Hidden Files using Direct FTP?

Possibly. Have you uploaded an .htaccess file? It doesn't appear just 'out of the blue'. ;)
