Custom Field for Adding jQuery to List Forms
Sometime ago, I had the need to manipulate particular form elements on the new and edit forms for a SharePoint list. Rather than creating a custom form (which would not automatically reflect future changes to fields in the list), I wanted a more flexible and reusable solution that also allowed me to expeiment further with jQuery.
So the jQuery Custom Field was born. The idea is to render JavaScript in the list forms, enabling client-side modification of form elements.
The simple usage illustrated in the supplied source code is to increase the width of lookup select fields - the title values being displayed in these fields were long and so required too much scrolling to be able to read.
