Hi,
I am able to POST the contents now, but rapidshare still gives me the error
saying no file selected. Does anybody knows the reason behind this? Can
anybody tell me what is missing in this for succesfully uploading a file.
Here is what I am doing,

    char *ptr=(char *)malloc(10000);
    size_t sent=d->m_formDataStream.read(ptr, 1, 10000); //reads the
contents of the file and copies it to ptr
    printf("\nsent=%d",sent);
    curl_formadd(&post, &last,
                  CURLFORM_COPYNAME, "filecontent",
                  CURLFORM_FILENAME,"u.txt",
                  CURLFORM_BUFFER, fileelement.m_filename.utf8().data(),
                  CURLFORM_BUFFERPTR, ptr,
                  CURLFORM_BUFFERLENGTH, sent,
                  CURLFORM_END);

    curl_easy_setopt(CurlHandle, CURLOPT_URL, d->m_url);
    curl_easy_setopt(CurlHandle, CURLOPT_HTTPPOST, post);
    RetVal = curl_easy_perform(CurlHandle); //perform the post
    if(RetVal)
    {
        printf("\nerror=%d!!!!\n",RetVal);
    }

Contents of the file are posted, here is what contents of the POST are.....
