Hi Anil,
May I know why you are not using the Standard Controller and inputField to display the lookup field?

Hi Anil,
I donno wat you are trying to do, You are using Standard controller as "Position1__c" and you want to select a position from there.
Do you have a self lookup field on that object? If not first create it.
then you can use that Field API name in the Input field.
<apex:InputField value="{!Position1__c.SelfLookUpfieldAPIName}"/> you get the lookup functionality by default.
Regarding record Type dependency I hope it may, if you have related lookup filters with the record type criteria.
