James,
thank you for the assistance - like David said Zend Form has many other
advantages and I guess each developer should figure out for himself which
implementation of decorators suits him best.
I personally would have designed the ZF decorators to be very lightweight
and use some kind of pattern, maybe something like this:
$form->setViewPatternDefault('<div>{label}</div><div>{field}<br
/>{description}</div>);
//or
$form->setViewPatternDefault('/path/to/form/views/rigid.phtml');
//and then if a specific field needed a different pattern
$form->getElement('dateCombo')
->setViewPattern('<div>{label}<br />{field}</div>');
One can currently emulate this with Decorator View Scripts, although still a
bit heavy, but gives you the most flexibility over form views.
