Hello,
I have create a help window for my web application and I would like if
it would always stay on top of the other browser's windows but still be
able to work in the other windows... is there a way to do this???

Pam,

While you can use a javascript to set the window to always on top, as far as
I know there is no way to set the window to always on top and still be able
to work within underlying windows. I believe that is something that may only
be done from the windows form world not asp.net.

Does anyone know of a way to do this?

The only way I can think that this might be even possible would be via an
ActiveX control / Java applet to call the WinAPI...

The closest you'll get to that is using a modal dialog window, and that'll
be specific only to the window from where it was opened.  I don't think
blocking all the windows is possible, nor should it be.  Imagine the
problems we'd be facing if that were possible...
