Answer 1

I am not sure what selector you are using, but if it is the same input tag as visible in your snapshot then you can try the below code. [it is just a blind attempt].

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 30);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.name("firstname"))).sendKeys("whatever");

and in general, you can also use the below code.

driver.findElement(By.name("firstname")).sendKeys("Whatever");

I believe you can take help from this thread - Selenium Webdriver: Entering text into text field

Below is the full working code. for demonstration, I have only filled firstname and secondname. do like the ans if it helps.

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

public class Testing {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
        WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 30);

        driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
        driver.manage().window().maximize();

        String myurl = "https://www.phptravels.net/register";

        driver.get(myurl);

        WebElement FirstName = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated
                (By.xpath("//input[@name=\"firstname\"]")));
        FirstName.sendKeys("Dina");

        WebElement LastName = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated
                (By.xpath("//input[@name=\"lastname\"]")));
        LastName.sendKeys("Hayden");

        System.out.println("Successfully Enter Value in the textbox.");
    }
}
