Ok, I see 2 possibility why it not working. 1) Cause you use TABLE(), you
should try SQLTABLE or SQLFORM.gris. 2) LOAD(), since component strip all
the style it may be possible that you can't see your stuff.
You can try to just embed your table in a view without LOAD() like that
{{=table}} see what happen.
Then try SQLFORM.grid or SQLTABLE (that tend to be deprecated, but still
help in many situation where SQLFORM.gris lack of flexibility).
