Well, a button usually has no value because it is a button and not a input. I suggest to simply add a hidden input-field to the form containing your row-ID and submit again.
If i am wrong about the false attribute then make sure that your application is serializing the form data properly.. But i really suggest to use hidden fields for this (semantics).
I dont know which ajax framework you are using but for prototype.js it will be most likely the case that the js-function "Form.serialize" is ignoring button-elements and thus the data is not posted to the action.

Any one know if you can't use a button element to submit an ajax form?
I have a series of button elements, each containing an image. When I
click on one of the buttons, I want it to submit the form, using the
value of the button element. My button tags look like this:
<button type="submit" name="data[Image][id]"
value="<?=$row['id']?>"><?=$pic?></button>
When I use this set up with a normal form, it works just fine. When I
try it with an ajax form, the form is submited, but it doesn't submit
any data (ie, it ignors the button's value attribute.) Origionally I
thought that maybe my controller code was to blame, but the fact that
no post data is being sent is making me think otherwise. Any one have
any ideas?
