Help

The help element is an abbreviation for <catch event= "help">. The count attribute, always defaults to one. It allows the VoiceXML application to handle different occurrences of the same event differently. Each <form>, <menu>, and form item maintains a counter for each event that occurs while it is being visited; these counters are reset each time the <menu>, or form item's <form> is re-entered. The form-level counters are used in the selection of an event handler for events thrown in a form-level counters are used in the selection of an event handler for events thrown in a form-level <filled>. Counters are incremented against the full event name and every prefix matching event name. For example, occurrence of the event, "event.foo.1", increments the counters associated with handlers for "event.foo.1" plus "event.foo" and "event". The cond attribute is an expression that must evaluate to true after conversion to Boolean in order for the event to be caught.
