Your advice was truly enlightning ! It didn't work exactly like this,
but this one did exactly as shown (remeber path is like
"06-01-2001/file.pdf"):

<dtml-with files>
  <dtml-with "_[path[:10]]"> <--- this gets me into the "06-01-2001" dir
    <dtml-with "_[path[11:]]"> <--- this gives me the variable space for
file.pdf
      <dtml-var size>
    </dtml-with>
  </dtml-with>
</dtml-with>

I'll write a HOW-TO for this in my page, I think it's worth it. Thanks
for your help all of your guys !
