The way the decorators works is by parsing the options passed in the array
that is defined by them.
So the above example the decorator options array is being set to
'ViewHelper' 'Errors' and 'Description', you could set your own decorators
for each by using instead
here is a small example to better explain this for you and get you started.
$this->setElementDecorators(array(
'ViewHelper',
array(
array(
'inputOpen' => 'HtmlTag',
),
array('tag' => 'div',
'class' => 'formDataRight',
'openOnly' => true
),
'placement' => Zend_Form_Decorator_Abstract::PREPEND
),
array('Description',
array(
'placement' => array('inputClose', 'prepend'),
'tag' => 'div',
'class' => 'helpLine')
),
array('Errors',
array('tag' => 'div',
'placement' => 'prepend',
'class' => 'helpline'
)
),
