Something like:

<form action="search.php" method="get"><input type="text" name="username" /></form>

$username = mysql_real_escape_string($_GET['username']);$id = implode(mysql_fetch_assoc(mysql_query("SELECT id FROM users WHERE username='$username'")));header("location:/forums/PokemonAtticRPG/profile.php?id=$id");

You just need to get the ID from the username entered and redirect - no "searching" necessary.

Assuming that each user has a unique username, you can do this:

<form action="search.php" method="get"><div> <input type="text" name="username"> <button type="submit">Search</button> </div></form>

<?php(string)$username = mysql_real_escape_string($_GET['username']);$con = mysql_connect("localhost", "database_user", "database_password");if(!mysql_select_db("database_name", $con)) { die("Error."); }$q = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE `username`='$username'");if(is_resource($q)) {	(array)$user = mysql_fetch_assoc($q));	echo "<h1>{$user["username"]}</h1>";	// print out more details about the user here}else {	die("Error: ".mysql_error());}?>

It doesn't go to their profile, it just goes to the search link.
