PHP Form to redirect with form results

I have a form that when they submit it, it stores the info in the database. I need to be able to get the form data to come up on redirect page.

It does not need to fetch the database as I would love to do this PHP style. So lets say they enter there name and city. When they click submit it redirects them to a thank-you page with the results from the form on that page.

In a form, you have each element have a name, lets say name="username", in the php, yould get the value of this as either a get, or a post response, depending on the method of the form.

HTML Form

<form action="process.php" method="get">
    <input name="username" type="text"></input>
    <input type="submit" value="Submit"></input>
</form>

or

<form action="process.php" method="post">
    <input name="username" type="text"></input>
    <input type="submit" value="Submit"></input>
</form>

process.php

$someusername = $_GET['username'];

$someusername = $_POST['username'];
