And I didn't understand why should I pass the 'pro_id' by GET and not by 
POST. This is the view from where I am passing the parameter (using POST)

{{for row in rows:}}
        <tr>
          <td>{{=x}}{{x=x+1}}</td>
            <td>{{=row.product_id}}</td>
            <!-- EDIT -->
            <td><form action="{{=URL('pro_edit')}}" method="post">
                <input name="pid" value="{{=row.product_id}}" type="hidden">
                <input type="submit" value="Edit">
                </form></td>
       <tr> {{pass}}

 Please tell me if I am wrong somewhere.

Mind that the pid of the product you want to edit should not be a POST 
> parameter but a GET parameter. According to REST it is used to identify the
