Have you tried using helpview.py from Robin. It comes along with
the wxPython installation and is in the path:

  Python24\Lib\site-packages\wx-2.6\wx\tools

Here is its docstring:

helpviewer.py   --  Displays HTML Help in a wxHtmlHelpController window.

Usage:
    helpviewer [--cache=path] helpfile [helpfile(s)...]

    Where helpfile is the path to either a .hhp file or a .zip file
    which contians a .hhp file.  The .hhp files are the same as those
    used by Microsoft's HTML Help Workshop for creating CHM files.


Maybe that is something for you?

To create the html files you can do that either by hand or use a
authoring tool. There are two tools available. One is the Microsoft HTML
Help Workshop the other is HelpBlocks from Anthemion Software.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
