Link $_POST ?

Hey,

 

I have a database with user info in it. I was wondering would it be possible to have a link post info to a page and then have that page display info relevant to the received info?...

 

Link page:

<a href="profile.php?name=<? print $_GET['Username'] ?>" method="post"><? $row['Username'] ?></a>

 

Profile page:

<?php
$username = $_POST['Username'];
$query = $query = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM users WHERE Username')
?>
You are viewing: <? echo $username ?>'s profile.

Email: <? echo $row['Email'] ?>

 

I have predefined $row.

 

Is it possible to do this way or would I have to use a different method?...

 

Cheers

<a href="profile.php?name=<?php echo $row['Username']; ?>><?php echo $row['Username']; ?></a>

 

<?php
$username=$_GET['Username'];
$query=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE Username='$username'");
$row=mysql_fetch_array($query);
?>
You are viewing: <?php echo $username; ?>'s profile.

Email: <?php echo $row['Email']; ?>

 

edit: just changed the query which I didnt notice before
