Profile from uname instead of uid

I have made a chat module and are trying to get view profiles working from within the chat.

In the XOOPS main dir I have a userprofile.php that I want to call userinfo.php from, the chat server passes $user so I think all I have to do is fetch the UID from $user and append it to the userinfo.php. Sorry I am very new to php so this is probably much simpler than it looks

I have this code but its not working

include("mainfile.php");
include (
$xoopsConfig['root_path']."header.php");
if(
$xoopsuser)
{
$sql mysql_query("SELECT uid FROM 1****y_users WHERE uname = '$user'");
$row mysql_fetch_array($sql);
$num mysql_num_rows($sql);
$uid intval($_GET['uid']);
if(
$uid <= 0)
{
print(
"Cant find a profile for $user");
include_once(
XOOPS_ROOT_PATH.'/footer.php');
exit;
}

print(
"
"
);

if(
$row[uid])
{
include 
XOOPS_ROOT_PATH.'modules/profile/userinfo.php?uid='.$row['uid'];
print(
"$row[uid]");
}
print(
"");
}
else
{
print(
"No username selected! ");
}
include_once(
XOOPS_ROOT_PATH.'/footer.php');
?>


EDIT: An easier way might be to modify the userinfo.php in XOOPS dir to resolve profile from uname rather than uid, anyone know an easy way to do this?
