    I found it. I am new to programming so asked such a newbie question. I passed a hidden input parameter in form for email and assigned the value of email that I received from facebook to the input parameter.

    You can refer to this documentation here. After you get the email from the response, you can then store it into a server session, pass it to the next web page where your forms are located or anything you want to do with it

    FB.login(function(response) {
    if (response.authResponse) {
     console.log('Welcome!  Fetching your information.... ');
     FB.api('/me', function(response) {
       console.log('Good to see you, ' + response.name + '.');
       console.log('email: ' + response.email);
     });
    } else {
     console.log('User cancelled login or did not fully authorize.');
    }
}, {scope: 'email,user_likes'});
