Can i use the HelpProvider control in a web application ?

No, it is a WinForms control and won't work in a Web App.

if not what are the alternatives?

Take a look around on the WWW for an example. You will find a few "icon next to control" ideas where a small symbol provides more explanation when clicked.

But usually a designer will try to prevent the need for them a s much as possible.

Also note that there is no "F1=Help" convention or support on the web.
