I’ve (finally) incorporated a substantial number of improvements and new features into my JavaScript library, DP_SharePoint, designed to make working with client-side SharePoint development easier. It provides:
- Methods to acquire JavaScript handlers to SharePoint form controls and fields. This makes it much simpler to interrogate or add event handlers to SharePoint forms.
- Simple methods to add or remove events from SharePoint form elements.
- Simple methods to hide and show elements of SharePoint forms.
- Methods to simplify the calling and use of SharePoint web services and ready the data returned from them for use.
It still beta – and likely will be for… ever – but I’m using it in heavily trafficked production development without problems. Except some in-depth posts about specific features over the next few months.
Comments, criticisms or suggestions are always welcome!
