The Embedded Help module allows administrators to create help tags directly above fields in the back-end. This is useful for sites where admins would like to provide content writers and editors with on-page assistance regarding how best to use specific fields, or information about what an option/field means or does. These help tags can compliment and re-enforce existing consolidated documentation (e.g. Advanced Help pages).

Embedded Help tags can be be several different types (help, info, or warning) and display styles (clickable icon, expandable teaser, or full text).

Help tags can be created on the following pages:

* Any page whose URL begins with /admin
* User add/edit pages
* Node add/edit pages

Can you provide some screenshots? Its one thing to look through the code, but it'd be great to really see it in action.

Also, here's a coding style patch to help you out. The JS should likely be rewritten to use Drupal.behaviors, more info on that here: http://drupal.org/node/171213#behaviors
