Question

Is it possible to disable the escaping that is performed on the Zend_Form setDescription method?

For example, in my controller, i’m testing if a login is successful, and if not setting the description (a H2) to the title plus an error message:

$form->setDescription('Login: <span class="error">Invalid Details</span>');

The above works, but replaces the < and > characters with their appropriate converted value.

Found the answer myself!

$form->setDescription('Login: <span class="error">Invalid Details</span>');
$form->getDecorator('Description')->setEscape(false);
