SF7 Cretae Parent and Child Records using 2 VF Pages
Hi ,
I have 2 obkects called Client Discovery and Client Site. I am using VF pages for both these objects . And user needs to fill in the first page and then click save and then he has to be redirected to the second VF page. And when user is in 2nd Vf page the Lookup field has to be filled with Parent Name(ID). [ Like we have account name pre filled while creating contacts ]
I have not written a Controller yet for this page and currently using Satndard controller only . I need to have a controller to get the Save and then redirect to the 2nd Vf page .

As you mentioned you have not created controller for the first page, create a controller for the first page and redirect to the second page using following code after inserting the first record.
Return following page reference from the custom save method from you new controller, this will redirect you to the next page.
PageReference newPageRef = new PageReference('/apex/VFPage2?client_desc='+client_desc.Id);
In the controller of the second page read the query string parameter, the id of the parent record, query the record and assign it to the variable on the second page's controller. Now if you use any field from the parent record on the page, they will be populated with correct value.
ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('client_desc');
