Do you want to use Facebook APIs or Do you want to create the same functionality in your website?

What I want to do is, user will send his facebook credentials to my webservice which will automatically login to facebook. so that user will not be redirected to the facebook login page. And then I have to share/like the url what the user sends to my webservice using the facebook API.

Can you show me a website which has this type of functionality? If you show me this functionality somewhere I can provide the code and logic for implementign it..

This is my need, I don't have any site which does the same.

Right you are.There is no such a website on the internet which authenticates a facebook user using webservice. Because facebook does not have the webservice APIs to authenticate a user.

It implements OAuth 2.0 authentication , according to which a facebook user should be authenticated only on the facebook site and facebook will provide a authentication token for the calling website.

This will avoid the facebook user's username and password to be misused if he enters it on any site other than facebook.

I would recommend you to read about OAuth 2.0

I've already done it using javascript and html. But my requirement is, user will send his facebook credentials to my webservice which will automatically login to facebook. so that user will not be redirected to the facebook login page. And then I have to share/like the url what the user sends to my webservice using the facebook API.
