What is your use case of the html? If it is always the same, you could look at
view helpers. Instead of printing your form, you use the view helper:

<?php echo $this->form?>
<?php echo $this->extendForm($this->form)?>

You create a view helper which accepts a Zend_Form object and renders some
html after it:

<?php
public function extendForm(Zend_Form $form)
{
return $form->__toString() . $this->_html();
}

public function _html ()
{
return '<p>This is my HTML</p>';
}

Otherwise, if it's really a part of the form (e.g. some controls), you can
create a decorator. In you init() of your form, you can do something like:

<?php
public function init()
{
// Add your elements
$this->loadDefaultDecorators();
$this->addDecorator('myControls');
}
