<div>I tried using orig_title in the format <dtml-var orig_title> in the called dtml-method (category_results) and I get a zope error which I don't understand:</div>
<div><strong>Error Type: TypeError<br>Error Value: sequence index must be integer</strong><br> </div>
<div>When I call it in the orignal page which I want the title for it works fine. </div>

Yes.
Here's a quick hack that will work.
<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('orig_title',this().title)">
<dtml-with links>
<dtml-var "catagory_results(_.None,REQUEST.get('orig_title'))">
</dtml-with>
