If I understand you right, then your "index_html" should list the contents
of the folder it is "called for". "here" is this folder.
Thus, you could use:

      <XXX tal:repeat="item here/objectValues">
        ... display item here in any convenient way ...
      </XXX>

Of course, you would replace "XXX" above by an appropriate HTML tag.

When you need to, you can ask for "items"s "meta_type" to
determine whether it is a folder or an instance of your ZClass.
