Making a site with a database kind of like WoWHead.com

I have started work on a new project and it is basically a database site for the new MMO if you have heard of it SWTOR and basically I need a solution on making it go to the page linking to the text entered into the search bar. So what I mean is I really need it so if you search up something like Lightsaber it will take the user to the page about the Lightsaber.

Here is the code for my index page:

<html>

<head>

<?php
$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbuser = 'root';
$dbpass = '';

$conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die                      ('Error connecting to 

mysql');

$dbname = 'archives';
mysql_select_db($dbname);
?> 



<font color="White" size="1">

<LINK href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">


<META name="description" content="SWTOR archives is a database packed full of information regarding 

weapons, equipment and many more items in Bioware's MMO Star Wars: The Old Republic.">

<META name="keywords" content="swtor, star wars, archives, jedi archives, star wars archives, jedi, 

mmo, mmorpg">


<center><img src="TOR_Logo.png" width="350" height="150"></center>

</head>

<body bgcolor="#000000">



<center>
<form action="http://localhost/search.php">

<INPUT type="text" size="50"> 

<INPUT type="submit" alt="Search the SWTOR database!" value="Search">

<div id="footer">

<p>
