Need help asap! Greatly appriciated.

Hi,

I am in desperate need of something for my website. I need a text box that when different words are typed in it takes you to a destination page depending on what you typed in the box.

For example:
I would like for a person to type in a name like: jacksmith
and hitting the go button it would take them to http://www.mywebsite.com/jacksmith.html

I do not want a drop down menu as i dont want the other names to be able to see all the other choices.

Anyone out there can help me? I would be eternally grateful.

Corma
