well, maybe peek into the Silva code ;).

"globals/frontend.css.dtml" has some code, which looks like:

/**
  * <dtml-let root="get_root_url()" ...omit other stuff...  >
  */

[...]
   background-image: url(<dtml-var root>/globals/skyfade.gif);
[...]


I did not really test it, but I hope this works for You either.
Assuming "folderimages" is living in the Silva root this should work, I think.

If You want to lookup "folderimages" dynamically,
try something like:

  <dtml-var expr="folderimages.absolute_url()"> might do,

but I am not experienced to DTML either, so this might just throw any error at You ...


Cheers,
