I need to get the access token from FB.login method in Javascript SDK. My login code is

FB.login(function(response) {

    if (response.session) {

        if (response.perms) {



        } else {

            // user is logged in, but did not grant any permissions

            alert(No Permission..);

        }

    } else {

        // user is not logged in

        alert(Please login to facebook);

    }

}, {perms:'read_stream,publish_stream,offline_access'});

Is there any way to get access token? I am able to get the access token using PHP.

You can get access token using FB.getAuthResponse()['accessToken']:

FB.login(function(response) {

   if (response.authResponse) {

     var access_token =   FB.getAuthResponse()['accessToken'];

     console.log('Access Token = '+ access_token);

     FB.api('/me', function(response) {

     console.log('Good to see you, ' + response.name + '.');

     });

   } else {

     console.log('User cancelled login or did not fully authorize.');

   }

 }, {scope: ''});

Edit:
Updated to use Oauth 2.0, required since December 2011. Now uses FB.getAuthResponse();
If you are using a browser that does not have a console, (I'm talking to you, Internet Explorer) be sure to comment out the console.log lines or use a log-failsafe script such as:

if (typeof(console) == undefined) { console = {}; } 

if (typeof(console.log) == undefined) { console.log = function() { return 0; } }
