<dtml-with "_['site']"> gives the same answer.

Along this vein, where site=demo

<dtml-var "_[site]"> renders the demo object, but if test has a property
domain,

<dtml-var "_[site].domain">  (or <dtml-var "_['site'].domain">) raises
the following error:

'string' object has no attribute 'domain'

Now, I *know* that the string object site has no attribute domain, but
the demo object does indeed have the attribute domain, and doing
<dtml-var "demo.domain">
