I have a ZCatalog object named images.
I tried this
<dtml-in images>
  <dtml-var "images.getpath(id)">
</dtml-in>
The problem is that getpath() doesn't want the id, but the rid.
How do I acquire this knowing the id?
Thanks
If you are using Zope 2.3.x you can use the following:

<dtml-in images>
    <dtml-var getURL>
</dtml-in>

for absolute urls
or 

<dtml-in images>
    <dtml-var getPath>
</dtml-in>

for physical paths.

Check out this howto I wrote for other available methods:
