in the site i'm managing i have a document type external link with three properties title, desc, link...ok? But i don't see related tempalte and xslt file why?
If a create a new document as external link i can't redirect it to a new link
A bit more info would be more than welcome.
Did you specify that document type yourself? Did you get it from a package? How should it behave? Are you expecting to see those templates and xslt's?
Then. I create a normal page with the tempalte standard for a dinamic page, ok? Under tihs page i create some nodes as the links. Each nodes is created bu a document type external link.
I dont'now where the webdeveloper get the package but i can see in the developer tree that doesn't exist an xslt referred to the document type external link...
I only created the nodes as an external link, but when i insert in field link, the link to an external page to a site with another umbraco instance, i can see that in the properties tab that link always point to another link inside the principal site. Why? I can't understand this?!
To list the external links (which you create as child nodes from what I understand) you need an xslt file (to obtain the information from the child nodes) and a macro referring to this xslt. The macro needs to be inserted into the template you use for your main node.

Some news?
I think you need to clarify a bit more...
To list the external links (which you create as child nodes from what I understand) you need an xslt file (to obtain the information from the child nodes) and a macro referring to this xslt. The macro needs to be inserted into the template you use for your main node.
I know this...
The problem is that i there is the document type external link but i don't find the xslt and marco that refer to the docu,ement type.
I assume you mean that there are no xslt template files included in Umbraco to do exactly what you want?
It's fairly easy to build such a thing by e.g. starting off with one of the "list sub nodes..." templates and then modifying this to your needs.
Refer to the book XSLT Basics (http://umbraco.org/documentation/books/xslt-basics) when creating your xslt file.
