When I execute your code (Zope 2.2.2), I get the expected
result.

For me, it seems, that you have a variable named "row_index"
in "REQUEST.environ" with value "0".
According to source documentation (ZPublisher.HTTPRequest),
"environ" has precedence over "other" (where ".set" places
it definition).

Try a different name with a very low change of being already
used: e.g. "row_index" --> "xyz123456".
