Abstract
There is disclosed a dynamic help system which can change and automatically update itself with relevant information based upon a user's needs to assist users in operating functions of a computer. The dynamic help system can create multiple types of pages that can seamlessly be integrated into a user interface already running on a computer. The dynamic help system may parse RAF or HTML-like user interface pages and components to create a corresponding help system also based upon RAF or HTML-like functions and layout. As a part of that process, snapshots of actual user interface components may be placed within the help system and used for navigation back to the user interface. The dynamic help system may be used by the user to obtain information and further interact with the user interface.
