In principle, you use it correctly...

But, DTML namespaces are sometimes quite confusing.

Try:

	<dtml-in db>
	  <dtml-let ob="_.getitem('sequence-item')">
	    <dtml-with "ob.getObject()">
	      ...
	    </dtml-with>
	  </dtml-let>
        </dtml-in>

I expect, that your code happens to get a different "getObject"
than you expect.

The code above does not give it a chance...
