resolve_url returns an object reference. using it with a dtml-var will cause 
a str(object) to be inserted which in the case of dtml-doc/methods is 
quotedHTML. 

assuming url refers to a callable object (ala dtml doc/method), you can 
render it with a
<dtml-let obj="REQUEST.resolve_url(URL1)">
<dtml-var "obj(_.None,_)">
</dtml-let>

or you could go for a one-liner
<dtml-var "REQUEST.resolve_url(URL1)(_.None,_)">
