I have a SharePoint 2007 list that have version history enabled.
I am interested to know how do I view the version history of a item using Javascript (or JQuery).

1FYI - I've added GetVersionCollection into the latest alpha on SPServices, but I don't think it's going to be as useful as you'd like. See spservices.codeplex.com/releases/view/77486Marc D Anderson– Marc D Anderson2011-12-30 20:36:25 +00:00Commented Dec 30, 2011 at 20:36

Thanks Marc. Actually, I found the GetVersionCollection that you added into the latest alpha1 on SPServices very useful as it allow me to track the version history of each item in the list. Well Done. :)Larry Morries– Larry Morries2012-01-03 01:07:13 +00:00Commented Jan 3, 2012 at 1:07

To make things even simpler on yourself, I would recommend using SPServices.
It has full support for the Versions web service in both SharePoint 2007 and 2010, which enables you to call the GetVersions method exposed by that service.
For example:
$().SPServices({
operation: "GetVersions",
fileName: "http://spsrv2010/DocLib/file.txt",
completefunc: function (xData, Status) {
// Do other stuff...
}
});

Hi Danny, does it also get versions from items in a SharePoint 2007 List? (Cause I notice that it need to know a filename - which probably a file from a SharePoint 2007 Library, but does a item in a Sharepoint 2007 List have a filename?)Larry Morries– Larry Morries2011-11-24 00:49:53 +00:00Commented Nov 24, 2011 at 0:49

Larry - for a standard list, you will actually want to use the
GetVersionCollectionmethod of theListsweb service. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like SPServices has support for that particular method at this point. With that in mind, you may want to use dhanya's approach. The MSDN documentation for theGetVersionCollectionmethod can be found here: msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/…Danny Jessee– Danny Jessee2011-11-24 14:22:23 +00:00Commented Nov 24, 2011 at 14:22 -
If you want a Web Service operation that isn't included in SPServices, please leave a message in the Discussions, and I'll get it in there for you.Marc D Anderson– Marc D Anderson2011-11-28 01:04:41 +00:00Commented Nov 28, 2011 at 1:04
