Hi,

Have you followed the tutorial for adding your help book to your application?

See /Developer/Documentation/Apple Help/Tutorial/.

Basically, make sure you've got an AppleTitle meta tag set up in your index.html file, make sure the file and its containing folder end up in your app's Resources section, and make sure your CFBundleHelpBookFolder and CFBundleHelpBookName Info.plist entries are properly set (the first to match the name of the containing folder, and the second to match the AppleTitle meta tag).

Hi!

I've put together the necessary files to have help within my app. When I select "Help" from the the "Help" menu, Apple's "Help Viewer" gets launched, as expected, however it goes to the Help table of contents.

What I'd like it to do is display my app's main help page when help is selected from within my app, which is called "index.html"

The tutorials and examples I have found do the same thing. However, many apps (like QT, iTunes, etc) go directly to an app-specific help page.

How do I get my app to go to its app-specific help page?

Thanks.
