<input type='text'> ... etc etc

and retrieve that value on another page as

Request.Form["name of input text field"];

W3Schools -ASP Forms and User Input

    ASP.NET WebForms has support for cross-page posting. Read http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178139.aspx and http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178140.aspx for more information.

    Example:

    WebForm1.aspx:
    Note the asp:button has its PostBackUrl property set.

    <%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="WebForm1.aspx.cs" Inherits="WebFormApplication.WebForm1" EnableViewStateMac="false" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <title></title>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server" >
    <div>

        <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
        <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button" PostBackUrl="WebForm2.aspx" />

    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

    WebForm2.aspx:
    Note that I’ve added the PreviousPageType directive here.

    <%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="WebForm2.aspx.cs" Inherits="WebFormApplication.WebForm2" %>
<%@ PreviousPageType VirtualPath="WebForm1.aspx" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <title></title>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
        This is page 2
        <asp:Label Text="n/a" runat="server" ID="Label1" ></asp:Label>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

    WebForm2.aspx.cs: (Codebehind)

    public partial class WebForm2 : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if(PreviousPage.IsCrossPagePostBack)
        {
            var tb = PreviousPage.FindControl("TextBox1") as TextBox;
            Label1.Text = tb.Text;
        }
    }
}
