Hi,

Because your gadget/ajax app is being served in an iframe it will have
no knowledge of its parent frames settings (like the currently logged
in users email address). You will probably need to look at the Google
Account Authentication API for doing what you want.

http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/

http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/AuthForWebApps.html

There may be new features in the new API for doing this but they are
not fully supported (available outside the sandbox) or fully tested
yet (hence the sandbox) so I would maybe try the links above as being
more stable.

Cheers!
