thanks for reply...i already seen this links and retrive details using this links only...but still the problem is that in this links also they did not provide info to get email id from login facebook user.

Maybe they intend to hide login credentials.

B'coz providing API is not a simple thing.
one more thing is you can get pwd with that id and retrieved information

You'll have to prompt your users to grant the email permission. Then you'll be able to pull the email field in the same API call that you get their name and basic info.

Email ids of facebook user are private by default. You need to ask for extended permission to get facebook users email id.
