Set look up field value in an object

I am having a visual force page with a picklist value of accounts.

Once i select an account and click a new button then new contact page should open and the Account field in the contact page should be updated with the account selected in the picklist.

I have made a page reference class which opens a new contact page but I am unable to update the account field on that page.

can anyone help me on this?

thanks

You should pass the account id as a parameter to the second page, and you set it on the second page start
