Thanks. Took care of it by having a form with a submit button and a bunch of hidden fields, and a bunch of forms with a single input field, in the headers. When the "submit' button is pressed on the form with the hidden fields, the values from the other forms are copied to its corresponding fields, and all of the necessary vars are passed via "get." So that's basically how I went about implementing a multi filter with input fields under the headers for web2py's grid, though I'm sure there's a better way...
