[Zope] SV: [Zope] getitem('string') but with HTML

[peter be]

Yeah! It worked.
I didn't use you dtml-in at all, and I guess you didn't understand my unwell-formated question.

However, getitem(arg,1) worked! 

Can somebody tell me the difference between: _.getitem(arg) and _.getitem(arg,1) ??
And what does _.getitem(arg,n) do? Where n is 0,1,2,3,4,...
