Data in Custom object not being sent via URL

Hi,

I have a custom lookup field in my Contact object called 'LoginInfo'. LoginInfo has 2 fields -- userName & password. ( When I create a new Contact, I choose a LoginInfo object from the list displayed. )

I have also created a custom button in my Contact Page Layout that executes the following URL:

http://sample.com/context-root/performSearch.do?sessionId={!API.Session_ID}&serverurl={!API.Enterprise_Server_URL_80}&firstName={!Contact.FirstName}&lastName={!Contact.LastName}&billingStreet={!Account.BillingStreet}&city={!Account.BillingCity}&state={!Account.BillingState}&postalCode={!Account.BillingPostalCode}&logInfoUserName={!LoginInfo__c.userName__c}&logInfoPwd={!LoginInfo__c.password__c}

Data in the Contact and Account object get passed as expected. But data in LoginInfo object is not passed to the called app.
Why is this? Both Account and LoginInfo have similar lookup relationships with Contact. What am I missing here?

Thank you.

As far as I know, the {!Object.Field} notation only works on standard objects right now in custom links. So you'd have to run a query on the receiving end (passing an Endpoing URL and a Session ID) or on the browser's end then construct the URL from the results.
