How do I retrieve the Name of the User using SPServices given the email address?

Question

Is it possible to retrieve the name of a user using the SPServices given the email address?

Suppose Jack Harry has a email jack_harry@goodworld.net inside the SharePoint 2007. Is it possible to provide SPService the email jack_harry@goodworld.net and SPServices will return Jack Harry?

Answer 1

Try this:

$().SPServices({
    operation: "GetUserLoginFromEmail",
    emailXml: "<Users><User Email='jack_harry@goodworld.net'/></Users>",
        completefunc: function (xData, Status) {
        $(xData.responseXML).find("User").each(function() {
                    $(this).attr("DisplayName");
                })
        }
});
