Abstract

Systems, methods and articles of manufacture for providing support information for a software application and generating a knowledge database of support information. A computer system generates a page of the software application displayable on a display. The page has a support button selectable by a user. In response to selection of the support button, the computer accesses support information regarding the page from a knowledge database that is separate from the software application. The computer generates a support page displayable on the display which includes the support information from the knowledge database. The knowledge database is updated at least partly based on analytical data regarding user access of the support information.
