You did not say where nextdoc_html is, but assuming it is on the
acquisition path, you might try (tested):

<a href="nextdoc_html">
<dtml-with "_.getitem('nextdoc_html')">
<dtml-var title>
</dtml-with>
</a>

-or-

<dtml-with "_.getitem('nextdoc_html')">
<a href="<dtml-var id>"><dtml-var title></a>
</dtml-with>


I prefer the second, because it would lend itself to a list of items
better.

DTML Documents play by strange rules, and I do not use them much; the
_.getitem() trick may not be the only one that works here.
