remote G2 glossary refers to:
http://www.riff.org/g2/entries

but there are no terms available. I remember that when I was testing D6 version it was ok.

Can you describe the problem in more details ? URLs like http://www.riff.org/g2/entries/CSS seem to work normally for me. When are you encountering the problem ?

ok, I see that your link works well, I thought that list is empty as http://www.riff.org/g2/entries in my opinion should provide a list of terms/glossary.

The idea is that the URL you enter in that field is only a base from which remote info will be fetched: no one is supposed to type it directly in a browser.

But you are right that it might need some more explanations, and possibly a default content, probably provided by G2 itself. What, as a user, would you expect to see there ? Since G2 is usually deployed for larger glossaries, there is no way it could display the whole list of entries on a remote glossary, for instance.

fgm, thank you for explanations.

I think it's good to type a link and to see which terms are in Glossary, so that I could test it with my local page linked to remote dictionary, i.e. firstly without creating local dictionary for test.

It would be nice to see on that page A,B,C,...,Z letters as links, so that I could go to see all terms. Or maybe even dictionary for "A" could be expanded by default.
