1. My suggestion is to take the string output of
$multiCheckbox->renderViewHelper(), explode it using the separator, then
loop through each line. e.g.
$form->addElement('multiCheckbox', 'foo', array(
'multiOptions' => $options,
'separator' => '__SEPARATOR__'
));
// view script
$output = $this->element->renderViewHelper();
$lines = explode('__SEPARATOR__', $output);
$c = 0;
foreach ($lines as $line) {
echo $line . (++$c % 3 == 0 ? '<br />' : '');
}
Just make sure that you use a unique separator that won't cause the string
to split incorrectly.
2. If it's for rendering the form tag, <?php echo $form->renderForm(false)
?> would output the opening <form> tag complete with the form attributes.
