If yor are using SQLFROM than You can try this 

labels={'field_name':P('name',B('*',_style:'color:red'))}

Sandeep:

(1) what does the "P" and "B" stand for?   

(2) is there a related way to change font size for individual field names?

In the above example, I think the style statement needs an equal sign instead of colon:

    form_add_new_role_member_status = SQLFORM.factory(db.role_member_status_instance, labels={'role_member_status_fk':P('Role Member Status', B('*',_style='color:Red;font-size:140%'))}) 

thanks

They are web2py HTML helpers for the <p> and <b> tags.

The best approach is to add an HTML class to the label and use a CSS rule.
