How do I use ViewScripts on Zend_Form File Elements?

Question

I am using this ViewScript for my standard form elements:

element->getId(); ?>\">
   <

This helped me fix my problem. I adjusted the code to wrap the file element inside a table. To make it work, simply remove the label from the viewdecorator and add the file element as follows:

$form->addElement('file', 'upload_file', array(
        'disableLoadDefaultDecorators' => true,
        'decorators' => array(
            'Label',
            array(array('labelTd' => 'HtmlTag'), array('tag' => 'td', 'class' => 'labelElement')),
            array(array('elemTdOpen' => 'HtmlTag'), array('tag' => 'td', 'class' => 'dataElement','openOnly' => true, 'placement' => 'append')),
            'File',
            array('ViewScript', array(
            'viewScript' => 'decorators/file.phtml',
            'placement' => false,
            )),
            array(array('elemTdClose' => 'HtmlTag'), array('tag' => 'td', 'closeOnly' => true, 'placement' => 'append')),
            array(array('row' => 'HtmlTag'), array('tag' => 'tr'))
        ),
        'label' => 'Upload',
        'required' => false,
        'filters' => array(),
        'validators' => array(array('Count', false, 1), ),
    ));
