Hi,

From where you want to get the Id,
Have you written any controller and Page?

Hi,I have created two visualforce pages and one controller class.In the First page I am selecting Object from the select list.In the Second list based upon the selected object I need to select the field.Once the field is selected,user will click on the Gotopage button which will navigate user to second Visualforce page.The second page should contain hyperlink to the selected object detail page.For the hyperlink I need Id of the object.

Code is as follows:
 Class:

public class Describer
{
    private Map <String, Schema.SObjectType> schemaMap = Schema.getGlobalDescribe();
    public List <Pair> fields {get; set;}
    public List <SelectOption> objectNames {public get; private set;}
    public String selectedObject {get; set;}
    public List<SelectOption> fieldNames;
    public String user{get;set;}
    public String objNm;
    public String fieldNm;
    public String userNm;
    
    // Intialize objectNames and fields
    public String selectedFields {get; set;} 
    Map <String, Schema.SObjectField> fieldMap; 
    public Describer()
    {
        objectNames = initObjNames();
        fields = new List<Pair>();
        
    }
   
    // Populate SelectOption list -
    // find all sObjects available in the organization
    private List<SelectOption> initObjNames()
    {
        List<SelectOption> objNames = new List<SelectOption>();
        List<String> entities = new List<String>(schemaMap.keySet());
        entities.sort();
        for(String name : entities)
        objNames.add(new SelectOption(name,name));
        return objNames;
    } 
      
       
    // Find the fields for the selected object
    public void showFields()
    {
        fields.clear();
        fieldMap = schemaMap.get(selectedObject).getDescribe().fields.getMap();
       
        for(Schema.SObjectField sfield : fieldMap.Values())
        {
            schema.describefieldresult dfield = sfield.getDescribe();
            Pair field = new Pair();
            field.key = dfield.getname();
            fields.add(field);
        }
        
        
        
    }

           }
