Yay! Did SharePoint 2013 finally decide to be consistent with Lookups?

So, all of us client side developers were having a heck of a time dealing with setting and getting the value of lookup fields in SharePoint because the field changed from a “select” to an “input” when a lookup list had more than 20 items.  This blog should refresh your memory on that:

Setting SharePoint Lookup Lists w/ jQuery (+/- 20 items)

Luckily it looks like Microsoft decided to be consistent in SharePoint 2013 and it seems to always use a select (at least it’s still a select after 57 entries). So, if you want to read the value of a lookup in SharePoint 2013 you just need one line:

$("select[title='']").val();  
And to set a lookup using jQuery we just need one line:
$("select[title='']").val("");  
So, at least in one aspect our life got a little easier. Although I will caveat this:
  • SharePoint 2013 is still in “Preview” so they could change the functionality (although I’d doubt it at this point)
  • A lookup may still change to an input at some other magical number? 
Just hedging my bets people… but so far I’m really digging SharePoint 2013.
