These get added to the namespace within Zope somewhere. If you grep through
the source files, you'll probably find it. (I'm guessing it happens in
ZPublisher... But I haven't looked through that code to see exactly what's
happening.)

Hmm... this should work
<dtml-with images>
<dtml-var imagename>
</dtml-with>

Should result in the creation of an <img> tag pointing to that image. Did
you upload your images as "Image" objects or as "File" objects?

You could do:
<dtml-with foldername>
 <dtml-with subfolder>
 </dtml-with>
</dtml-with>

Or, I believe, <dtml-with "foldername.subfolder">
(Note the ""s. Those are important)

I'm not running it under Solaris, but I'm guessing that this is the case. If
you're using Apache, then you would need to change your rewriterules, etc...
but if you're just using ZServer, I don't think you would need to do
anything but delete the directory.

Zope doesn't have anything specifically for creating rollovers... you just
put the Javascript within your HTML the same as you would elsewhere. You
could possibly write some DTML methods to make it easier on you, though.
