Using CKFinder to select website Files

I have a Content managment system that is only accessible by aunthenticated users. I want to provide a method by which when linking text from CKeditor, a user can use CKfinder to select the files that make up the website so that a user can link to the files that make up the website.

For example whilst typing content in CKeditor, they want to link to Contact Us of the same website? Whats the best way of allowing someone to link to these types of pages?

To link to specific files you just need CKFinder. To link to subpages of your web site, I think you should write a custom link browser (especially if links to your pages are dynamic and the content of your web site is stored in a database).

You might even add a new button to the link dialog to be able to use your custom link browser and CKFinder at the same time.
