How to give link to a Lookup field in sharepoint?

Question

Hi,
     This is my first time in working in sharepoint and i am also learning sharepoint. I have a Parent List named "Orders" and "Tasks" as child list. I was able to link both the list. In the Orders list, i have a lookup
colums that shows the count of Tasks for that Order. In that column, it just showing nos but what i need is that when i click on the no, i should show the list of tasks related to that Order in a popup window. How should i do that?
Thanks.

hi
to open a page and filter based on Order values
create a new aspx page, form1.aspx , wich will show all Tasks's items
add a param as querystring , name it param_Orders , insert as filter for the DFWP orders to be equal to
param_Orders
open the page using SharepoinDesigner
go to code and select nos
add this code
<a href =/path/form1.aspx?param_orders={@order} " target="_blank"> < xslt:value-of select="@Nos"/></a>
This way you will open a new window with tasks's items filtered by order name value
Similar , you can use javascript to open a modalwindow ( a eral example you can see on
