Hello ALL.
I’m on SP2013.
I found a jquery code that gets values of current user through SPServices.
Article – http://www.synergyonline.com/Blog/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?List=6b52d069-ff15-4bf8-a157-faf92c9401b4&ID=271&Web=6f35f2df-bca7-45ab-b54e-869b529f079d
This works great for single line text fields but doesn’t work for people picker fields.
I’m a bit stuck. Perhaps I’m doing something wrong. Help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Larry
After trial and error, as well as searching the web, i found this –Â http://www.getsharepointsolutions.com/sharepoint-2013-pre-populate-people-picker-value-to-current-user/. it works so well.
I already gave Larry this link, but I’ll post it here as well in case anyone else may have a need for it:

Thanks Marc. I have done a post on Codeplex as below…

Larry:
Why don’t you post your code and what you’ve tried over on the SPServices Codeplex discussions? I’m sure we can come up with something.
