Specifically:

<span class="error">*<?php echo $usernameErr; ?></span>

Will that php word on a vbulletin page or will it need a variable ?

Yeah, you need to use a variable. If it's a global then {vb:raw GLOBALS.usernameErr} might work (although it's kind of cheating), otherwise you need to register it to the template.

I'm using the get method because on the post method it redirects me with this:

I'm not sure what's doing that, but you could try adding this in your form:

			<input type="hidden" name="s" value="{vb:raw session.sessionhash}" />
			<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="{vb:raw bbuserinfo.securitytoken}" />

You *could* use GET, but everything will be on the url, and you'd need to check $_GET instead of $_POST. You can check $_REQUEST to get either one, but it's probably better to use the one that your form is using unless you have a reason to do otherwise. (Sorry if you already know all that - you probably know more than I do when it comes to non-vbulletin php).
