Standard Buttons

Visualforce pages can be shown as the result of clicking a native user interface button, overriding the button’s standard behavior. The following standard buttons can be overridden:

New—The New button normally navigates the user to the edit page on a new record.

Delete—This is the page navigated to after a record is deleted. The default behavior is to navigate to the tab page.

Clone—The Clone button copies the values from the current record into a new record and places the user in edit mode on that record. This behavior can be customized by overriding the Clone button.

Accept—The Accept button applies to records owned by a queue rather than a single user. It enables a user to remove a record from the queue, assigning ownership of the record to himself. This button appears on the list page only when it is displaying records owned by a queue.

To override a standard button, go to the App Setup area and click Create, Objects and select the object. Scroll to the Buttons, Links, and Actions section. Your Visualforce page must use a standard, single record controller, with or without extensions.
