providing Apple Help in cocoa app

Hi,

I've been struggling to get help working in my app. I precicely
followed the steps I've read in previous posts and online tutorials
but for some reason this won't work.
these are the steps I do:
-I create a sub folder in resources called "Help"
-I add a new empty file called "index.html"
-I add the following text to index.html:
<html>
<head>
<meta name="AppleTitle" content="SamleApp Help">
<title>SamleApp Help</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>This is a sample application</h1>
</body>
</html>
-I modify the info.plist file by adding 2 new keys:
<key>CFBundleHelpBookFolder</key>
<string>Help</string>
<key>CFBundleHelpBookName</key>
<string>SamleApp Help</string>
-I rename the menue item that triggers the action for help to:"SampleApp Help"

when I try calling help in the app by invoking the appropriate menue
item it always says:
"Help isn't available for SampleApp".

this has gotten really frustrating. I'd appreciate so much any useful
hints that
help me solve this problem.

thanks!
Daniel
