 The above  problem I am facing while enabling help for 
 gnome core applications (nautilus, control-center, panel 
 etc) and help on applications from Panel launchers.

 #1 Enabling help for application from Panel launchers -

    Here the help path is taken from the "DocPath" in the 
    <application>.desktop.in file . The same path can be seen 
    in the "Documentation" in the properties dialog box.
   
    How to pass the full path for the help file in the 
    <application>.desktop.in file for the application ?? 
 
 #2 Help on gnome core applications
    There is  a single help document  for nautilus. control-center,panel
    etc and it can installed anywhere.  Now how to access
    this document from individual application.
 
    Let's say I have the help document installed under 
    share/gnome/help/panel  and I want to access it from nautilus.

    I use the api 
    gnome_help_display_desktop(NULL,"panel","<helpfile>",<sectid>,error)

    But when the path (relative path) "ghelp://panel/<helpfile>" is
    passed to the gnome help browser (Yelp in my case) it's not able
    to open the file.

    Well I can use the api gnome_help_display_uri (url, error)
    by forming the url (finding  the full  path etc )in the application, 
    but that will be a overhead for the application.
