Hi,
You were right,  gtk_file_chooser_get_uri () gives me
correctly the contents in the Location GtkEntry. Sort off:

If I write http://www.app.org/, I get the same.
However, if I write http://www.app.org (without the final slash) I get:

http%3A%2F%2Fwww.app.org

Other problems still remain. When I write, say,
ftp://ftp.my_site.org/my_path/my_file.xml

too clever GTK immediately prompts a dialog of his own, asking me for
a user/password combination, or a click for anonymous... even when
I explicitly said, to disable Gtk network code:

gtk_file_chooser_set_local_only (GTK_FILE_CHOOSER (filechooser), TRUE);

I don't want that dialog at all, the anonymous ftp is chosen automatically
(as in any browser...) the question is, how can I disable it? GTk is 
obviously
connecting the GtkEntry "changed" signal... but how can I accees it? :-(

Other question, GTK always, show at least to me, a default file, (the 
first one)
in the File List and as a consequence, in the Location Entry, which in 
my opinion
is wrong. This seems related with the equivalent issue I reported weeks 
ago about GtkTreeView: a default is always shown, even when it makes no 
sense.

I still think the best solution for most problems, not all :-(, I have 
with Gtkfilechooser
is to get acess to the Location GtkEntry... How can I do that?

Actually this is a matter of principle: as a GTK user, I should be able 
to access
ALL the relevant, visble widgets in ANY Gtk dialog... let's say I want 
to change
the base color of that Entry, light yellow, to signal some "secure 
connection".
How can I possibly do that, if I have no access to the GtkEntry in the 
first place?

Thank you very much, for your interest in this matter
Carlos
