Grammar

er...help needed ? my english is very bad. please do forgive me.

Hi. I am from Japan. I am currently writing a manual for one of my company's software and there is this section which explains the function it's buttons. And I wanted to make it short, so I wrote ("Help button : Opens online help") for ("This help button will open the online help pages"). Is it correct? or is this correct ("Help button : Open online help"). If both are wrong, then please do teach me the correct one. Thank you very much.

Yes, remember (as Barbara pointed out) no apostrophe is used for possessive "its"!!!

'It's' only means either 'it is' or 'it has'...
