Well it looks to me like you're missing a crucial part of the query. You're selected all of the data from your users table, not just that for one person.

 

$sql="SELECT * FROM users WHERE `id`='$id'";

or maybe:

$sql="SELECT * FROM users WHERE `username`='$username'";

 

From the comments, it looks as if the intention was to get a user's id from the url:

// get value of id that sent from address bar

 

But this doesn't appear to be done anywhere. You'll need to take a look at the links to the profile page, and see what the variable in the url string is. If, for example, the links are something like: <a href="viewprofile.php?userid=$id">, then on your profile page you'll need to have: $id = $_GET['userid'];

Looks like your problem is here

 

$sql="SELECT * FROM users";
$result=mysql_query($sql);

 

You are selecting all the rows in the users table, and presumably the first row is for user "admin". How is the user id passed in to this script, as you will need to rewrite that query to only fetch the required row.

Well as far as i can see, you are repeating the code to get your data from the database 3 times. The first two times you attempt to use the username, and do nothing with the result. The 3rd time you use the id. I would guess that you only need:
