this does work if someobject is in the same folder as the actual page. But
if I use it one level above the current directory I get an error:

    An error was encountered while publishing this resource.
    Error Type: NameError
    Error Value: global name 'someobject' is not defined

the structure is like this:

   -index
   -works/
        someobject
        mypage

if I reference from mypage to someobject it works. If I reference from index
to someobject it doesn't ...
