[Zope] why is this?

This works:

  <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('asplit',_.string.split(bigstring,'&'))">
  <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('aname',asplit[0])">
  <dtml-var aname>

But this doesn't:

  <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('asplit',_.string.split(bigstring,'&'))">
  <dtml-var asplit[0]>

Why is that?  What does work for list access?

Regards,
