This handler is invoked if the [F1] key is pressed or the [help] item is selected from the menu while the Element object has the input focus.
This handler is particularly applicable to the <BODY> and <FRAMESET> tags and will be defined for Element objects that correspond to them.
In MSIE, after this event has been handled, the built-in help window will be displayed. This can be suppressed by passing the value false back rather than true. Passing no value back defaults to true.
