Popups
Instead of opening the entire help system, you can display individual help pages in a popup window. Follow the steps below to add a popup help window to your Web application.
1. Open a page (such as a login form) of your web application using an HTML editor such as Visual Studio or a text editor such as Windows Notepad. This is an example of a simple login form.

<html><body>

Username: <input><br>
Password: <input><br><br>
<input type=button value=Login>
</body></html> |
2. Add the following code to display a link for a popup help window.
