Geeba: I have used FTP at times to move files from one server to another that is not on your network. Sometimes development was done on one computer: then we had to FTP the files to a remote server for production code.
This could be the reason for that. Chances are: if you are changing database values and the values are not being reflected in the code: it is because the code is looking at a different database than the database you are changing.
