Well, you are right. I do not directly call the modules's function from
the file system.
I call an External Method that "wraps" the module's function and then i
call that External Method from my DTML Method. Here is the example:

    <dtml-in expr="GetData(sysDSN=sysDSN, usr=usr, mypass=mypass,
sTable=sTable, sFields=sFields)">
      <dtml-if sequence-even>
        <tr class="even">
      <dtml-else>
        <tr class="odd">
      </dtml-if>
      <dtml-in sequence-item>
        <td><dtml-var sequence-item> </td>
      </dtml-in>
      </tr>
    </dtml-in>


GetData is the name of the External Method i call with the parameters of
the module's function as you can see.
