Yes, it's just a request argument like any other form element.
If you had the HTML:
<form action="" method="post">
<label>
Enter Text:
<textarea name="mytext" rows="5" cols="20">here</textarea>
</label>
<input type="submit" name="mysubmit" value="Do Stuff!" />
</form>
And the mason code:
my $textarea_contents = $m->request_args->{mytext};
you can then do anything you like with $textarea_contents, including
writing it to a file, if you desire.
