Question

How can I create Zend Form Element implements A html tag not INPUT. I need create something like that:

$Link = new Zend_Form_Element_Link(
    $field_name,
    array( 'label'=>'THIS IS LINK', 'href'="#", 'other_attrs' => array() )
);

Do I should use loadDefaultDecorators function or either?

This Link element is not actually related to the Form, it’s just simple link to be rendered in Zend Form.

See this series of articles by Matthew Weier O’Phinney:

• The simplest Zend Form Decorator
• How to layer Decorators
• Rendering Zend Form Decorators individually
• Creating composite elements

Last one should be of particular interest.
