I have a new client who asked me to make 2 websites and no payment so far!
I have the ftp accounts, but he can always close my access and leave me without pay.
Can I upload the CSS to another server of mine and encrypt the link to CSS file?
If yes, can I restrict peoples to see the file if they find the URL to CSS file?
Thank you!
The best way to do this is to create a simple PHP file that allows you to access, edit and delete files on the server. You can also search for a ready made lightweight ftp script. Place the PHP file somewhere on the server nested in other folders and name it something like temp.php. Now even if the client blocked you access to the server, you can still access, edit and delete files on the server by pointing your URL to temp.php. When you get paid, be kind enough to remove the file. Don’t forget to password protect it.
In your PHP file you can use opendir() to read files from a directory, and unlink() to delete files. If all you want to do is be able to delete files, then the script will not take you more then a minute to create.
UPDATE
You can use the following lightweight ftp script that will let you view, edit delete files and also give you the option to password protect it. http://sourceforge.net/projects/pafm/
