Yes, that is what I did. I did the seach for the serial number 778_998, recorded
the URL and pasted it into me other application. The I replaced all occurrences
of 778_998 with my variable that holds the serial_number . I expected this to
work, but there seems to be hidden magic, because I don;t get the correct
search results.

Right now I seriously wonder if what I want to do is
possible at all.
