Displaying the item version history programmatically using Javascript

Question

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).

Answer 1

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...
    }
});

Answer 2

You can make ajax calls to version webservice http:///_vti_bin/versions.asmx
