The component behind contextMenu and it's kind of integration may also be used as a context-sensitive help like this:
<ice:contextHelp id="myDialogHelp" value="#
{helpBean.topics}">
<f:facet name="enable">
<ice:outputText value="Enable Help on Mouse Over"/>
</f:facet>
<f:facet name="enable">
<ice:outputText value="Disable Help on Mouse Over"/>
</f:facet>
</ice:contextHelp>
Behaviour: When enabled, everytime the mouse hover over any component and a help-topic is defined for it's id, a help-popup displays automatically (and disappears also on mouse-out.
The topic-data may deliver help-texts with headline against the components id under question.
Alternatively it would be nice, to be able to link a kind of massage-panel to the ice:contextHelp, whic would display the help-topic instead of the popup:
<:ice:messagePanel id="helpMessages" for="myDialogHelp"/>
It would even be possible, to generate a complete "Application-Help-Handbook". Of course, the topic-data has to reflect these advanced structures.
