Querying certain fields (Sections) And Related Lists

Hi, I wanted to know how I can query a section of a contact page, and a related list of that contact and put it as a tab.

 

So my users can click the tab, and it brings up a contact look up field, with other fields from the contact, as well as a related list.

With Visual Force you can. 

<apex:page standardController="Contact">
<apex:pageBlock>
<apex:pageBlockTable value="{!MyCustomObject__r}" var="cust">
<apex:column value="{!cust.Name}" />
</apex:pageBlock>
</apex:page>
 
This is how you would iterate a related list of an object that has a reference to a Contact. You can modify this page to include a lookup to a contact and refresh the list on change of this lookup. You can also call this page with a valid contact Id.

That sounds exactly like I want! 
How would I add the contact lookup/refresh to the page? 


Also, I've been trying to query a related list, and no columns are showing up. Not even a {!(var).Name
