The other issue might be the spaces between the parameter and the "="s
in your <input> lines.
I'm not sure if the browser is going ignore what's going on there or not.
You can dump the contents of the $_REQUEST variable to see what's
actually getting sent to the script.
example:
var_dump($_REQUEST);
That should give you some idea of what's going on.
If the $_REQUEST array is empty, then I'd reformat that HTML like this:
<form action='filename'>
<input type='hidden' name='rows' value='$row'>
<input type='button' name='submit' type='submit'>
</form>

><form action =

><input type = 'button' name = 'submit' type =

></form>
