How to see files and folders on web-server ?

[CmdrLaForge]

Hi,

maybe a stupid question but still: how can I see what folders or files on a web-server are ? Should I use ftp or something ?

Like what files and folders are on www.macrumors.com? (I am not interested in those, just an example)

Thanks for the help

yeah you'd need to have an ftp username/password for the site. Which I assume you would have if your doing the web work. There are some servers where you can look at a directory if their is not an index file in it. But not all servers work like that.
