I'm not sure what you consider inaccurate about the documentation; if
you could clarify, that would be great.
The basics, however, are quite simple:
$form = new Zend_Dojo_Form();
$form->addElement('ComboBox', 'foo', array(
// specify your options:
'label' => 'Some options',
'multiOptions' => array(...), // specify options here...
'store' => array( // or setup a dojo.data store
'type' => '<dojo.data type>',
'id' => '<id that dojo will use>'.
'params' => array(...), // data store parameters
),
));
$form->addElement('DateTextBox', 'bar', array(
// specify your options
'label' => 'A date text box',
));
