Well it looks like you are submitting a non ajax form. You can easily
use ajax forms.
something like:
def calcForm(xhtml:NodeSeq):NodeSeq = {
SHtml.ajaxForm(Helpers.bind("f", xhtml,
"age" -> SHtml.text(ageVar.is.toString, v => ageVar(v.toInt)),
"male" -> SHtml.text(maleVar.is.toString, v =>
maleVar(v.toBoolean)),
"submit" -> SHtml.ajaxSubmit("Calculate", () => {
// return your JSCmd here
}),
"le" -> le.toString
))
