"document_id" is the id of the executing DTML objects.

For a DTML method(!), "id" is the id of the object of which
the method is used as a method.
In your case, this is the folder.

In some cases, you would use "this().id".
This gives you the id of the "top level" DTML object.
In your case, this would be "index_html".
