Hi Anumca,

 

Design a page which will contain desired look up value. Add the look up button or image besides the field which you desire. Then on click of this button open this page by showModalDialogBox. Select the desired value from this modal pop-up and then pass a parameter to the parent while returning and close the modal pop-up. I hope you understood the concept. Let me know if you are facing any issues.

 

Regards,

Lakshman

Do you want to use salesforce native lookup window or want to create your own VFP. both are possible. let me know what you want
Shashikant SharmaShashikant Sharma

If you want to use native lookup then use this

 

Add this Script

 

<script>
    
      function showLookup(ctrlID,objKeyPrefix)
        { 
            openLookup("/_ui/common/data/LookupPage?lkfm=editPage&lknm="+ ctrlID +"&lktp="+objKeyPrefix,500);           
         }
</script>

 


 

 

 

<apex:pageBlockSectionItem id="pbsiID">
                    Field Label
                    <apex:OutPutPanel id="opAccountID">
                        <apex:inputText id="vField_AccountName" value="{!AccountNameForSearch}" style="width:150px"/>
                        <apex:inputHidden id="vField_AccountName_lkid" value="{!lookupAccountID}"/>
                        <apex:inputHidden id="vField_AccountName_lkold" value="{!lookupAccountNameForOld}"/>
                        
                        <apex:image url="/s.gif" alt="Lookup (New Window)" styleClass="lookupIcon" onmouseout="this.className = 'lookupIcon';this.className = 'lookupIcon';" onmouseover="this.className = 'lookupIconOn';this.className = 'lookupIconOn';" onclick="javascript&colon;showLookup('pageID:formID:pageBlockID:pbsID:pbsiID:vField_AccountName','001')" title="Lookup (New Window)"/>
                    </apex:OutPutPanel>
                </apex:pageBlockSectionItem>

pageID:formID:pageBlockID:pbsID:pbsiID:vField_AccountName : Change this id to your vField controls id

 

'001' is Account objects Key Prefix , give your key prefix

 

Please ask if any confusion.

 

Otherwise you can crete your own custom lookup page, and open it using showModalDialog and reyurn values to parent window using window.return value.

<apex:page controller="accvflkpclass">

<script>       

  function showLookup(CF00N90000001mmqK,a04)   

    {          

  openLookup("https://ap1.salesforce.com/_ui/common/data/LookupPage?lkfm=editPage&lknm=con4&lktp=a04&lksrch="+a04,500);

Now what I meant was pageID:formID:pageBlockID:pbsID:pbsiID:vField_AccountName this should be the id for the control

vField_AccountName. Id for any control gets generated using hierarchy.

 

In your case page,form and other controls that are in it's hierarchy do not have id's,

 either you take syastem genereated id's like ik1 from your view source or give same ids as i hav give

 



<apex:page controller="accvflkpclass" id="pageID">

<script>       

  function showLookup(CF00N90000001mmqK,a04)   

    {          

  openLookup("https://ap1.salesforce.com/_ui/common/data/LookupPage?lkfm=editPage&lknm=con4&lktp=a04&lksrch="+a04,500);    

               }

</script>

<apex:form id="formID">

<apex:pageblock id="pageBlockID">

<apex:pageBlockSection id="pbsID">

<apex:pageBlockSectionItem id="pbsiID">           

        Field Label             

      <apex:OutPutPanel id="opAccountID">

  <apex:inputText id="vField_AccountName" value="{!bdayNameForSearch}" style="width:150px"/>

  <apex:inputHidden id="vField_AccountName_lkid" value="{!lookupbdayID}"/> 

<apex:inputHidden id="vField_AccountName_lkold" value="{!lookupbdayNameForOld}"/>

<apex:image url="/s.gif" alt="Lookup (New Window)" styleClass="lookupIcon" onmouseout="this.className = 'lookupIcon';this.className = 'lookupIcon';" onmouseover="this.className = 'lookupIconOn';this.className = 'lookupIconOn';" onclick="javascript&colon;showLookup('pageID:formID:pageBlockID:pbsID:pbsiID:vField_AccountName','a04')" title="Lookup (New Window)"/>         

</apex:OutPutPanel> 

</apex:pageBlockSectionItem>

</apex:pageBlockSection>

</apex:pageblock>

</apex:form>
 </apex:page>

 

See the ids that i gave, please ask if any confusion

I am able to get the popup when I click on lookup icon but wheever I am selecting any of the data coming in that popup I am not able to close the popup and also the value is not selected in the input text.

Please if you have done something controller side provide us the detail so that we can also know the proper flow.
