Hi,
For a website i'm trying to add a field to a page layout where i can link to other pages in the site. So i use the lookup field and select a value (in my case a page within /pages) to look at. Now whenever i click on the value in the lookup field in the created page i'm always being redirected to this folder
/Forms/DispForm.aspx (the exact location is for this particular document is /Forms/DispForm.aspx ID=11&RootFolder=*)
Why doesn't the lookup field just use the (in my case) Pages/Gezichtsherkenning.aspx
I don't want users to look at the properties for this page. Is there a better way to link to other pages within a site. (i prefer that users only have to select the page instead of typing url's )
many tnx in advance, Joost

Hi,
Sorry, what I meant was a Custom Field control. There is an example on MSDN for that:

The example is for a media player control, but you can easily create your own lookup control this way.

Hi Joost,
The lookup refers to the listitem in the pages library, so it will automatically go to the property page of the document and not the document itself. I'm not aware of a workaround with out-of-the-box features, but what you can do is to create a custom column with the lookup functionality and the direct redirection to the page itself.

Hi Mart,
tnx for your fast reply. I don't exactly understand what you mean with
"create a custom column with the lookup functionality and the direct redirection to the page itself"
could you specify this a little, maybe
tnx again!
