AFAIK, anything you install with Activestate ppm will add its docs to
the HTMLized help. If you install with CPAN or manually, the docs won't
get added. You could always do a pod2html on the module and copy that
into the Activestate tree.
Personally, since I got broadband, I often go to search.cpan.org to look
at docs because it has cool things on top of the HTML - like a button to
look directly at the source and the ability to diff versions from a URL.
OTOH, things like perlpod and perlfunc I tend to look at locally.
