Now that I know what to ask, here goes

What do I name my profiles page?

[alwaysinit]

I have a musician community portal site. I'm trying to create 'one' PHP page that is used for all musician's profiles.

Does anyone know what I should name this page to where it will function as everyone's profile page?(Can it be just "profiles.php"? Or do I need something more in the name to do that?

Thanks again for the help guys

profiles.php is fine. You can name it whatever you want. And to get the user profiles, you can utilize the _GET variables [us2.php.net]. Something like this:

if(![url=http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.isset.php]isset[/url]($_GET['user'])) {
echo 'Please specify a username';
[url=http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.exit.php]exit[/url]();
}
$user = $_GET['user']
//connect to db server, select db
$query = "SELECT * FROM profiles WHERE username = '".[url=http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-real-escape-string.php]mysql_real_escape_string[/url]($user)."'";
//etc...

This is, of course, assuming that you are using a database to store the user profiles.

Good luck!

thanks, yes I am storing their info and file names of pics and mp3's in database. I am trying to get links in my site's search results to point to member profiles. Just unsure of how to make the universal profile page display a certain member's profile. And then have the same page display another members completely different profile.

I will try the code you gave me, thank you very, very, very much. Looks like what I want, now to see if I can code it right.
