Getting value from a textarea in PHP is similar to getting value from a textbox.It's done like:

<?php
    $skills=$_POST['skills'];
?>

But assuming that you want to put it in an array,I assume that the string is a collection of skills separated by some delimiter,like a comma for which you can use the explode() function in PHP and store the array of 'skills' in a variable $skills like:

<?php
    $skills = explode(',',$_POST['skills']);
?>

Hope that answers your query.
