Think you will need to use jQuery.ajax() about that... Not sure I understand your other question...
Dropbox menu (or HTML SELECT OPTION) is a form elements that you can have only for CREATE and UPDATE form, DELETE is not really a form it just a lamda function attach to a record that when it called will generate a drop of the record. So, when you select records you want to show them in a tabular way, so I don't why you would need a dropbox in that context. But, you may be talking about of shaping form differently and put fields element into a table, this is easy to achieve with HELPERS available as part of web2py.
