Play 2, how to reuse a HTML code with a tag

In Play! Framework v. 1.x there was such thing like a 'tag' where was possible to reuse some thml/template code.

In Play! Framework v 2.x, for me it is not clear still how it's going to be used (here).

For example, I want to use tag to define a header for my site (in order not to repeat myself, but just include the header every in the pages where I need it).

Could someone explain me / show how to use tags, or whatever I should use to include the header or any block of html/template code.

You showed us a sample and you are asking for sample :)

That's easy, create a common view in views.tags package (remember to leave first line empty if you're not gonna to pass any params! also remember to add brackets after tags name):

/app/views/tags/header.scala.html

<div id="header">
    <h1>Hello World!</h1>
</div>

So you can 'include' it in any other view just with:

<body>
    @tags.header()
    Some other content
</body>
