Answer 1

Assuming I've understood this correctly, you just need to pass the text box values to your web page either using HTTP POST or HTTP GET, and then retrieve the values in the code of your choice (e.g. ASP.Net).

So, for HTTP GET, your Win Forms application calls this page, passing the values in:

"http://www.example.com/page.aspx?param1=value1&param2=value2"

and you can then read those values from the QueryString and do something with them:

TextBox1.Text = Request.QueryString["param1"];

There are loads of other ways of doing similar things, including using JavaScript.

Answer 2

If you are referring to an actual website as in you are launching a browser, you can use the Web Browser Control to launch the browser and manipulate the elements, or execute js.

using(WebBrowser browser = new WebBrowser())
{
    browser.Url = new Uri("http://www.google.com");
    HtmlElement textBox = webBrowser1.Document.All["textbox1"];
    if (textBox1 != null)
    {
        textBox1.InnerText = "Hello";
    }
    //repeate for textBox2....
}

If you are talking about a winform app and textboxes on it you would do something like this:

textbox1.Text = "hello";
textbox2.Text = "word";
