I have a page full of apex:inputfield tags. On one of these inputfields I'd like to popup my own lookup window. What should my approach be?

It seems that apex:inputfield is bound to a data field, but I'd like to retain the existing look and feel of salesforce, yet popup my own VF page.

How do I go about something like that?

Both Bob Buzzard and Jeff Douglas have excellent blog posts on this very subject. I have implemented both and each works very well. I would check these out and they will at least get you started.
