I checked the forum, and it turns out that Snippet 130 
on Peter Grainge's site has the answer:
  http://www.grainge.org/pages/snippets/snippets.htm

In brief, you must start Chrome with the added switch
  --allow-file-access-from-files
which you can put in your shortcut at the end of the
Target field in its Properties | Shortcut tab (after 
a space).  

This is a change all your users would need to make; 
you can't change anything in the WebHelp or OmniHelp 
to allow that, for obvious security reasons.

HTH!
