Facebook开发PHP - 新手问题

Question

I'm working on a project synching a facebook application with a regular website.

The db has got a users table, but the table only has got the user ID of each user of the application. The user id is the facebook user id of the people.

For each user in the users table, I need to fetch their name, and other info from facebook. The client is using a facebook application, so I believe he should have a developer key, and anything else needed.

My question is, how can I retrieve the users' name and other info from facebook using their facebook user id?
