You could do that using the ViewScript decorator with the new content
wrapping feature Matthew added few hours ago! :)
Here is your new setElementDecorators():
$form->setElementDecorators(array(
array('ViewHelper'),
array('ViewScript', array('viewScript' => 'element.phtml',
'placement' => false)),
));
Then in your element.phtml:
<?php
require_once 'Zend/Form/Decorator/Label.php';
$label = new Zend_Form_Decorator_Label();
$label->setElement($this->element);
?>
<tr>
<td>
<?= $label->render('') ?>
</td>
<td>
<?= $this->content ?>
</td>
</tr>
One small note about the Label decorator, we could actually write the
<label> tag ourselves like: <label for="<?= $this->element->getAttrib('id')
?>"><?= $this->element->getLabel() ?></label>
But that's not good enough, what if the element doesn't have 'id' set? Label
decorator is smart to fall back to the element name if id is not set, and it
has a bunch of other extras, like adding the optional/required classes,
...etc.
