Concerned objects are custom classes instances, inherited from
SimpleItem or ObjectManager (for which the "absolute_url" is never
defined).

I can use several methods :
 - <dtml-let MYINSTANCE="otherObject.callMethod()"> (which retrieves an
object)
 - <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('MYINSTANCE', otherObject.callMethod())">
(which is used mainly when the result can be used in several scripts)
 - <dtml-in ... prefix="sequence">
     <dtml-let MYINSTANCE=sequence_item>

and probably other similar methods called via Python scripts...

P.S. : I forgot to you that I'm using Zope-2.6.1 with Python-2.1.3
