| How do I convert a string to a DTML object?
| 
| I have a string property which contains DTML. I would like to render it.
| Something like
| 
| <dtml-var "_.getitem('property',1)">
| 
| however because the object is a string I simply get the exact string. I
| would like to convert it to a dtml object or interpret it as if it were
| DTML.

You need to create a DTML object then, or create a method that creates a
temporary DTML object and returns the rendered text.
