Ok I think I know the reason now, the links in the content area just 
have the File.html in the href='' but the link to the page from the top 
menu is /Admin/Global/CustomField and the bottom one is 
/Admin/Global/CustomField/index.html

Basically thats how relative links work, there's no / at the end of the 
first url so it tries to look in .. because it thinks CustomField is a 
file not a Directory/. If i add a / to the end the links are ok, So the 
fix would probably to put the /index.html ahead of the top Custom Fields 
link, this is the brower behavior doing it.

Sorry for the confusion.
