Since my web application needs to render more than two tables I was
too lazy to write/copy/paste table html code over and over again.
Instead I implemented render_table which does the job nicely.
Everything starts out with one or more database query result sets.
Columns are reordered and reassigned to a new target table that shall
be rendered.
Is there a better built-in web2py-ish way to achieve the same?
