SPServices is a jQuery library which abstracts SharePoint's Web Services and makes them easier to use. It also includes functions which use the various Web Service operations to provide more useful (and cool) capabilities. It works entirely client side and requires no server install.

Does SPServices cater for filling in fields from another list

Hi,

I am currently using SPCascadeDropdowns & SPDisplayRelatedInfo. Is there a way of having something similar to the SPDisplayRelatedInfo which automatically fills in the fields in the current Form from another list based on the selection of the dropdown please?

commented

@dprivitelli, that's basically what SPDisplayRelated info does: based on the selection in the dropdown, it shows additional information fro the lookup list.

commented

Yes I agree. However, I need to get that data and use it to fill other fields, because that data will not be stored in the list but just displayed and I need to store it. Can it be done somehow?

Your need is a specific requirement that the generic function doesn't provide. It's absolutely possible, but you'll need to write the code for it.
