1.1.: Re: Making SPLists Not look like SP Lists

Hello All,

Okay so I got this working using JQuery using list web services in my master page then saved and deployed as site template to create sub sites. But I have an issue when I click the links from one page to the next they cause what I am calling a reload flash (b/c they are doing just that reloading from the JQuery and web service every time). My question is how do I stop this reload flash, is it possible? I was thinking maybe I load the list in an xml doc or something, or cache something in IIS, or maybe it is the way I have deployed as templates. I truly have no clue what path to use to fix this one, not a huge issue but wanted to see if it is possible to fix and how I would do that.

Also on another topic but related to what I said above, I have deployed sub sites based on a site template .wsp I saved in dev and re-deployed in production. Problem I am having is I put everything in the /style library/… three sub folders /images/… /scripts/… /css/… etc. location. When I change the css it works fine on all sub sites and there masters pages, b/c they point back to root style lib; JQuery the same. Now the images are supposed to do the same dang thing, but when I over write one of the images in the style lib/images on the root none of the sites pick it up, I have tried: F5, ctrl + r, the refresh button from the browser, tried using other browsers than IE, done IIS resets on 2 wfe's and app server, rebooted servers, etc. all still show the old image (Key here is WHEN I OVER WRITE the original image)? I am thinking it is ghosted and unghosted problem most likely, but that doesn't solve my problem, I need to know how to get the sub site master pages to recognize that it is a new image?

Thanks in advance,

Shane G.

That was supposed to say "guys" not guy, thanks for the suggestions "guys", I'm going to attempt the csom first as it does make sense of why it's there to begin with, and services as a secondary option, and hopefully get it working, thanks again guyS!

Thanks,

Shane G.

If you want to do this with the minimum amount of research, you might just
go to the SPServices project on CodePlex. The documentation is quite
extensive, and pulling data from a list is pretty standardized.
