The "web2py" ui includes the following CSS classes:
ui = dict(widget='',
header='',
content='',
default='',
cornerall='',
cornertop='',
cornerbottom='',
button='button btn btn-default',
buttontext='buttontext button',
buttonadd='icon plus icon-plus glyphicon
glyphicon-plus',
buttonback='icon leftarrow icon-arrow-left glyphicon
glyphicon-arrow-left',
buttonexport='icon downarrow icon-download glyphicon
glyphicon-download',
buttondelete='icon trash icon-trash glyphicon
glyphicon-trash',
buttonedit='icon pen icon-pencil glyphicon
glyphicon-pencil',
buttontable='icon rightarrow icon-arrow-right
glyphicon glyphicon-arrow-right',
buttonview='icon magnifier icon-zoom-in glyphicon
glyphicon-zoom-in',
)
Which of the above classes are causing problems for your display?
Of course, you can simply provide your own classes by passing a custom
dictionary as the "ui" argument.

You can customize both the search widget displayed on the page as well as
the search function that generates the database query. The former is
handled via the "search_widget" argument, and the latter by providing a
function as the "searchable" argument (it takes the list of searchable
fields and the "keywords" variable from the search form and must return a
Query object).
Note, if you just want a single text box for search, rather than creating a
custom search widget, it might be easier to keep the default widget and
simply disable its Javascript functionality via:
search_input = grid.element('#w2p_directory_keywords')
search_input and search_input.attributes.pop('_onfocus')
You could also handle that via Javascript on the client.
