This is pretty ugly, but I think it should work if you're interested in
fixing this with jquery in your template.
I use this technique to hide columns based on other things going on with
the page, but should work in your situation too. I haven't tested the
re-labeling the column heading so the 10th line may need some tweaking...
{{extend 'layout.html'}}
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
{{if not request.args or not request.args[0] in ('new', 'edit',
'view'):}}
var rows = $('.web2py_htmltable > table > tbody > tr');
rows.each(function(index) {
$('td:nth-child(4)', this).hide();
})
$('th:nth-child(4)', this).hide();
$('th:nth-child(4)', this).val('Column Heading');
{{pass}}
});
</script>
