<P> As you can see it is possible to enter a search-string in the textfield an hit the Search button.
<P> After a short while the search result will be populated into the tab below the textfield.
<P> Browse the result list and inspect your searchresults within the table. To visualize the results, select an table entry, press the Add selected row to WMS-list button and change back to the server tab.
<P> QGIS automatically has updated your server list and the selected searchresult is already enabled in the list of saved WMS-servers.
<P> You only need to request the list of layers by clicking the Connect button.
<P> This option is quite handy when you want to search maps by specific keywords.
<P> Basically this option is a frontend to the API of http://geopole.org.
