<apex:selectList value="{!filterId}" size="1">
<apex:actionSupport event="onchange" rerender="list"/>
<apex:selectOptions value="{!listviewoptions}"/>
</apex:selectList> </apex:panelGrid>
<apex:pageBlockSection >
<apex:dataList var="a" value="{!accounts}" id="list"> {!a.name} </apex:dataList>

Hi Sandip,

Please check the below code:
 
<apex:page standardController="Custom_Object__c" extensions="OrdertoSales" tabStyle="Opportunity">
	<apex:form > 
		<apex:pageBlock title="Copy to Sales Detail" mode="edit"> 
			<apex:pageBlockButtons > 
				<apex:commandButton action="{!copy}" value="Copy" /> 
				<apex:commandButton action="{!cancel}" value="Cancel"/> 
			</apex:pageBlockButtons> 
			<apex:pageBlockSection title="Information" columns="1"> 
				<apex:inputField value="{!Order.Name}"/> 
				<apex:inputField value="{!Order.expected_order_date__c}"/> 
				<apex:inputField value="{!Order.memo__c}"/> 
				<apex:inputField value="{!Order.order__c}"/> 
				<apex:inputField value="{!Order.stage__c}"/>
				<apex:inputField value="{!Order.start_date__c}"/> 
			</apex:pageBlockSection> 
		</apex:pageBlock> 
	</apex:form>
</apex:page>

This will show as a Content Source as we are using the standardController as Custom_Object__c.

Please do let me know if it helps you.

Regards,
Mahesh

Hi Sandip,

You have to mention the standardController="Custom_Object__c" then it will show you the current page.

whatever the value / object you give for standardController, for the same object you can use this VF page.

Please do let me know if it helps you.

Hi mahesh,
I had a visualforce page like 
<apex:page controller="OrdertoSales" tabStyle="Opportunity">
<apex:form > <apex:pageBlock title="Copy to Sales Detail" mode="edit"> <apex:pageBlockButtons > <apex:commandButton action="{!copy}" value="Copy" /> <apex:commandButton action="{!cancel}" value="Cancel"/> </apex:pageBlockButtons> <apex:pageBlockSection title="Information" columns="1"> <apex:inputField value="{!Order.Name}"/> <apex:inputField value="{!Order.expected_order_date__c}"/> <apex:inputField value="{!Order.memo__c}"/> <apex:inputField value="{!Order.order__c}"/> <apex:inputField value="{!Order.stage__c}"/> <apex:inputField value="{!Order.start_date__c}"/> </apex:pageBlockSection> </apex:pageBlock> </apex:form>
</apex:page>

In the above code I use controller attribute in Apex:page.  OrdertoSales is a apex class .  Can  you plz tell me why I cannot see this page in
Content Source dropdown while creating custom button for a custom object.
