[Zope] passing a parameter - namespace and dtml-with

[Peter Bengtsson]

Better

<dtml-let orig_title="'Hannoverian Stallions Lauries Crusador ' ">
<dtml-with links>
<dtml-var "catagory_results(_, _.None, title1=orig_title)">
</dtml-with>
</dml-let>

Use dtml-let and notice the extra _ in the parameters. I doubt that
DTML methods accept plain arguments except self, REQUEST and RESPONSE.
All other things must be passed with keyword arguments.
