You may have java confused with javascript.
In javascript you could refer to the value property of the textarea.
You did not say what the name of the form is - where the textarea lives.
Assuming only one form:
alert (document.forms[0].elements['Title'].value);
=== (Or are you talking about server-side programs)===
if you're talking about java servlets look at doGet  of HttpServlet class
and   request.getParameter("Title")

The tag u have put, I'm assuming is in some html page. Given that,
where do u want to read the contents of textarea ???? Do u want to read
inside a java program running on webserver? or just read within the
browser, when some event happens?
