Just like Zend tells you.
Whatever is the name of your text area becomes the key to the $_POST array. In
their case they had an input field named 'cust_name'.
Since you (probably) have multiple text areas, you can either give them unique
names such as 'comment_1', "comment_2', etc. Or, a simpler approach would be to
name them all 'comment[]', in which case the $_POST['comment'] will be an array
with one element for each text area.
