Hi there,

I have implemented the code for Twitter connect in .net.
But i m having small problem here.
I get Logged in user information i.e.his name, user id, location etc, but not getting email id.
Unlike facebook, twitter does not provides email id of logged in user...

So my question is "How to get Email Id of the user when i connect to my site using TWITTER CONNECT"

Thanks..

0	Hi, Thanks for your suggestion and help. "We have to use email id for Login and all process so can not replace or add new field." So i found another option. When i connect using twitter, it authenticates the user, and after authentication i am redirecting to another page with all the information, where i am asking user to fill his/her Email id(which is mandatory). after user hits submit button it will then make entry into database and then user can access the site. Its working now....... Thanks, Nilkanth Nilkanthn, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator
