MySQL + PHP: General Help Needed for Echoing Data from Foreign Key
I have 2 tables (Users, Wall). The UserID in the Wall table is a foreign key. How would I go about fetching the users details using this? (I want to fetch the users Forename and Surname who posted the message.)
Users Table: alt text http://i33.tinypic.开发者_如何学Gocom/1eq6n5.png
Wall Table: alt text http://i37.tinypic.com/b5po5u.png
EDIT: I cannot figure out how to show the data.

$message = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['message']);
$postmessage = mysql_query("INSERT INTO Wall (Message, UserID) VALUES('".$message."', '".$_SESSION['UserID']."')");
}
// Collet Latest Posts
$result = mysql_query('SELECT Message, UserID
FROM Wall
ORDER BY MessageID DESC
LIMIT 20') or die('Invalid query: ' . mysql_error());
// Collet Post User
$query = mysql_query('SELECT Forename, Surname FROM Users INNER JOIN Wall ON Users.UserID = Wall.UserID;') or die('Invalid query: ' . mysql_error());

As you can see I am outputting the message but I have no idea how to output the Forename and Surname of the poster.
