關於聯接的PHP MySQL查詢

Question

我有一個新手PHP MySQL問題，我有2個表，成員和消息。

表'成員'

+-----------+------+
| MEMBER_ID | NAME |
+-----------+------+
|         1 | Bob  |
|         2 | Ted  |
|         3 | Tom  |
+-----------+------+

表'消息'

+----+------------+--------------+--------------------+
| ID | SENDERS_ID | RECEIVERS_ID |      MESSAGE       |
+----+------------+--------------+--------------------+
|  1 |          1 |            3 | Hello Tom from Bob |
|  2 |          2 |            3 | Hello Tom from Ted |
|  3 |          2 |            1 | Hello Bob from Ted |
+----+------------+--------------+--------------------+

我想進行一個查詢，其中Tom只有他的members.member_id可用，可以獲得他的所有消息以及發件人的姓名，如下所示：

+------+--------------------+
| name |      message       |
+------+--------------------+
| Bob  | Hello Tom from Bob |
| Ted  | Hello Tom from Ted |
+------+--------------------+

我已經閱讀了一些連接的例子，但是知道如何將它們實現到MySQL語句中。

我可以輕松獲得Tom的member_id，但不知道如何繼續進行。 我還想在數組中返回結果。

  public function getMessages($member_id) {

  $result = mysql_query("SELECT member_id FROM members WHERE member_id = '$member_id'") or die(mysql_error());
    $no_of_rows = mysql_num_rows($result);
    if ($no_of_rows > 0) {
        $result = mysql_fetch_array($result); 
        $receivers_id = $result['member_id'];
        .
        // What can I do here to get the $result that I want?
        .
    }
    $no_of_rows = mysql_num_rows($result);
    if ($no_of_rows > 0) {
        $results = array();
        while(list($results) = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
            array_push($results, $result);
        } 
        return $results;
    }
}       

任何幫助將不勝感激，

謝謝

SELECT  c.name,
        b.message
FROM    members a
        INNER JOIN  messages b
            ON a.member_ID = b.receivers_id
        INNER JOIN members c
            ON b.senders_ID = c.member_ID
WHERE   a.name = 'Tom'
