OK, this is interesting. This returns the Page Contact, using the CAMLQueryOptions to expand the user field (thanks fereko). I'm assuming the contact with ID 1 is always the page owner (seems to be in the tests I've run), but can someone confirm?
$().SPServices({
operation: "GetListItems",
async: false,
listName: "Pages",
CAMLViewFields: "<ViewFields><FieldRef Name='PublishingContactEmail' /><FieldRef Name='PublishingContact' /></ViewFields>",
CAMLQueryOptions: "<QueryOptions><ExpandUserField>True</ExpandUserField></QueryOptions>",
completefunc: function (xData, Status) {
$(xData.responseXML).SPFilterNode("z:row").each(function() {
if ($(this).attr("ows_PublishingContactEmail")) {
var contactEmail = $(this).attr("ows_PublishingContactEmail");
console.log("ows_PublishingContactEmail:",contactEmail);
} elseif ($(this).attr("ows_PublishingContact")) {
var contact = $(this).attr("ows_PublishingContact");
console.log("contact: ",contact);
}
});
}
});
