You could use an actionfunction - that allows you to tie a controller method to a javascript function, and you can pass the value as a parameter.  Also, there's javascript remoting which would allow you to call a controller method and pass the value directly to that in an asynchronous fashion.

You can define the actionfunction like so:

 

     <apex:actionFunction action="{!doSearch}" name="runQuery">
        <apex:param name="query" assignto="{!searchString}" value="" />
     </apex:actionFunction>

 

invoke this using :

 

runQuery('test');

 

 and in your controller have:

 

public string searchString {get; set;}

 ...


public PageReference doSearch(){

 

and the searchString will be populated with the value from the page by the time that doSearch is executed.

You can use the code samples I gave above to achieve this.  I'm not going to write the code for you I'm afraid.

<script language = "Javascript" type="text/JavaScript">

function FileSizesave()
{
    var File1Idtit=File1Id.value; // Here we are storing the value of title from apex:inputfield

}

</script>

<apex:inputField value="{!obj.Title__c}" id="TitleId" /> //We use an Id to fetch field path
         

<script>

var File1Id=document.getElementById('{!$Component.TitleId}'); //We then store the field path into a javascript variable

</script>
