title: How to get a value from a HTML text area in the Play Framework?
body: <p>I am using scala templates within the Play Framework to create my views.</p>
  
  <p>The user is required to enter some text into a text area. I would like to use this text to send into another view within my application. </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;div class="ui form"&gt;
   &lt;div class="field"&gt;
     &lt;label&gt;Please use the text box below&lt;/label&gt;
       &lt;textarea&gt;//this is the text that i need to grab&lt;/textarea&gt;
   &lt;/div&gt;
      @pet_order(petId, //this is where i send in the text)
  &lt;/div&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p></p>
  
  <p>Can anyone give me some advice on how to achieve this?</p>
