Oops, reverse that. I wrote them backwards, and realized it immediatly
after hitting 'send'.
The root folder is the highest x in URLx, you start from where you are
(URL0), and count up.

URL2 still only exists if are in at least one level below the root,
though. If you are in the root fodler, URL0 wil be the page you are
on, and URL1 will be the root. URL1 will always exist in DTML (AFICT).
YMMV.
