I added the feature, but there's a couple of issues - we need to hardcode a server list for this release (there's a ticket about dynamically retrieving a list of active MP servers, for post 2.6), and the pui combo box has some focus issues, to do with when it fires its valueChanged notification. In the medium-term I'll improve the pui code, but again for 2.6, making the widget 'non-live', and adding a separate connect button or checkbox is the way to go, I think. (In more detail - I tried to make the combo-box editable - so you can enter a server address manually - but when you do this, the widget seems to be reluctant to loose the keyboard focus, and hence propagate the typed value, unless you click on another text field in the dialog). Notably, simply clicking outside the widget *won't* force it to loose focus. James ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Write once. Port to many.
