crm 2011 get the default view id

Is there a way in CRM 2011 to get the default view id for a custom entity? Using JavaScript I want to dynamically generate a HREF but I don't want to hard code any part of the URL. I know how to get the Server URL and Org name in the link below but not this portion "etc=2&extraqs=%3f_gridType%3d2%26etc%3d2%26id%3d%257b"

http://dev:5555/MyOrg/main.aspx?etc=2&extraqs=%3f_gridType%3d2%26etc%3d2%26id%3d%257b

You can query public views just like any other entity in CRM. The entity name is SavedQuery and there are properties for returnedtypecode (Entity Name), isdefault, and querytype (the type of query it is).

So with that in mind you can make a query to the OData or Soap endpoints from JavaScript to get the default query for any entity type.

Take a look at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg334266.aspx

You should be able to use something like:

var defaultViewId = Xrm.Page.getControl("<lookup field name>").getDefaultView()
