If you want the IDL help in HTML, you can get it with IDLWAVE. You
don't have to be an emacs and/or IDLWAVE user. Just take the help
files and view them in your favorite browser, which might just be w3m.

You might even be able to override the "?" command (or make a new
command) that opens the correct file in your browser.

-k.
