+  <title>Open a file that is located on a server</title>
+
+  <p>Prior to opening a file on a server from within <app>gedit</app>, you need
+  to know some technical information about the server.  For example, you will
+  need to know the IP Address or URL of the server, and may need to know what
+  kind of server it is (e.g., HTTP, FTP, etc.).</p>
+
+  <p>Also, some types of servers impose restrictions on what you can do with
+  files stored on the server. For example, you may be able to open a file from
+  a server, but may need to save any changes to the file locally, on your own
+  computer.</p>
+
+  <p>With these caveats in mind, perform the following steps to open a file
+  from a server using <app>gedit</app>:</p>
+
+    <steps>
+      <item><p>In the header bar, click on <gui>Open</gui>.</p></item>
+      <item><p>Click <gui>Other Locations</gui>.</p></item>
+      <item><p>Enter the IP Address or URL of the appropriate
+      server.</p></item>
+      <item><p>Find and select the file that you wish to open.</p></item>
+      <item><p>Use the Character Encoding drop-down list to select the
+      appropriate character coding.</p></item>
+      <item><p>Click <gui>Open</gui>.</p></item>
+    </steps>
+
+  <p>Valid types of URI include http:, ftp:, file:, and all of the methods
+  supported by <app>GVfs</app>.</p>
+
+  <note>
+    <p>Files from some types of URI are opened as read-only, and any changes
+    you make must be saved to a different location. For example, HTTP only
+    allows files to be read. Files opened from FTP are read-only because not
+    all FTP servers may correctly work with saving remote files.</p>
