Hi, I have this piece of code <?php set_include_path(get_include_path() . PATH_SEPARATOR .dirname(__FILE__)); require_once('Zend/Loader.php'); Zend_Loader::registerAutoload(); $view = new Zend_View(array('encoding' => 'UTF-8')); $form = new Zend_Form(); $element=$form->createElement('text','foo'); $form->addElement($element); $form->setElementsBelongTo('array'); echo $form->foo->render($view); echo $form->render($view); echo $form->foo->render($view); ?>

and the output is something like this

<input type="text" name="foo" id="foo" value="">

<input type="text" name="array[foo]" id="foo" value="">

Please notice that the first rendered element isn't in array and after rendering whole form it is.
