1. Include the span in the label and turn off escaping.
e.g. $form->addElement('button', 'submit', array('type' => 'submit', 'label'
=> '<span>Send</span>', 'escape' => false));
2. I don't think that's possible without using the ViewScript decorator or
writing a custom one. The regular decorators are not aware of the other
elements in the form.
I'd do it this way:
- strip down the decorators to remove the dt-dd nonsense. I prefer having as
little HTML in the decorators as possible when I render them manually in the
view.
$decors = array('ViewHelper', 'Label', 'Errors');
$form->addElement('text', 'contactFullName', array('label' => 'Naam',
'class' => 'text', 'decorators' => $decors));
$form->addElement('radio', 'contactGender', array('multiOptions' =>
array('m' => 'Mr.', 'f' => 'Ms.'), 'decorators' => $decors));
- render individual decorators in the view along with the markup:
<dt>
<?= $this->form->contactFullName->renderLabel(); ?>
</dt>
<dd>
<?= $this->form->contactGender->renderViewHelper(); ?>
</dd>
<dd>
<?= $this->form->contactFullName->renderViewHelper(); ?>
<?= $this->form->contactFullName->renderErrors(); ?>
</dd>
I personally think this should be the way to go when building the HTML for
the form and should be featured more prominently in the manual. More code
for sure, but you have absolute control over the appearance of the form.
