To render the form into a table:

    $form->setDecorators(array(
        'FormElements',
        array('HtmlTag', array('tag' => 'table')),
        'Form'
    ));

Plus, you'll need to ensure the elements and labels are in table data
and table rows:

    $form->setElementDecorators(array(
        'ViewHelper',
        'Errors',
        array('decorator' => array('td' => 'HtmlTag'), 'options' => array('tag' 
=> 'td')),
        array('Label', array('tag' => 'td')),
        array('decorator' => array('tr' => 'HtmlTag'), 'options' => array('tag' 
=> 'tr')),
    ));

For your 'submit' button, you'll want to modify the decorators so the
submit spans both columns:

    $form->submit->setDecorators(array(
        array(
            'decorator' => 'ViewHelper', 
            'options' => array('helper' => 'formSubmit')),
        array(
            'decorator' => array('td' => 'HtmlTag'), 
            'options' => array('tag' => 'td', 'colspan' => 2)),
        array(
            'decorator' => array('tr' => 'HtmlTag'), 
            'options' => array('tag' => 'tr')),
    ));

Enjoy.
