Chess Problems

I see there are nice thumbnails now in Recent problems column.

May I suggest a problem search by it's number. This seems not to work by feeding textsearch box a number. Perhaps another box? Then the applet would retrieve required puzzle and perhaps some of it's neighbours.

Currently it is hard to go back several hundreds of problems and with thumbnails even more so Sad
