Maybe I can help then.
Well, to start simply: do you have experience in designing or implementing user assistance at the field level within an web application? As an example, PayPal puts small question mark graphics near each field on their transaction forms. Clicking on this graphic opens a new browser window that displays information on the corresponding field.

I would like to implement this kind of user assistance, but am experiencing resistance from one of our developers who thinks that the limited benefits of implementing field-level help are outweighed by the visual clutter and added complexity.
