First
Name:

How can i implement this? Please anyone help me!!!

Answer 1

By default, input fields labels are being escaped by Zend_View_Helper_FormLabel. However, you can easy switch this off:

$yourTextInputElement->getDecorator('label')->setOption('escape', false);

This way you can use labels as e.g. $yourTextInputElement->setLabel('First <br/> name');.

Answer 3

The best way is probably to use Description decorator, or subclass one of other standard ZF decorators.

Yanick's CSS solution might be a good choice too, depending what are you trying to do.
