Found this post looking for a simple Filesonic API upload example (in php).
Couldnt find one so thought id post what I knocked up in case it helps anyone else.

    $username = '******@gmail.com';
    $password = '*******';
    $file =     '/your/file/path.jpg';
    
    
    $fs="http://api.filesonic.com/upload?method=getUploadUrl&format=json&u=$username&p=$password";
    $reply = file_get_contents($fs);    
    preg_match('#"url":"(.*?)".+"status":"(.+?)"#',$reply,$matches);
    if ($matches[2] == 'success')
    {
        $request_url = stripslashes($matches[1]);
        $post_params['files[]'] = '@'. $file;
        $ch = curl_init();
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $request_url);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post_params);
        $reply = curl_exec($ch);
        curl_close($ch);
        preg_match('#"url":"(.*?)".+"status":"(.+?)"#',$reply,$matches);
        if ($matches[2] == 'success')
            echo stripslashes($matches[1]);
        else print 'error';
    } else print 'error';

This doesn't work. Anyone got hotfix?

[PwdGuy]

This doesn't work. Anyone got hotfix?

The code works perfectly. If it?s not working for you it?s probably due to restrictions on your server regarding curl or a firewall if you?re running it locally. It successfully runs on my web-server once every hour. What exactly is your setup?

[Arxiss]

I am using localhost, firewall is off. I don't know what config options I should check.

But here is where your script fails:
After I use curl_getinfo($ch) just before the curl_close($ch)
I get this response:
http://codepad.org/kS5sH82x

As you can see, 'http_code' => int 0 and content_type is empty. Looks like curl fails.

Do you have any ideas pwdguy? Can you post your config.

EDIT: Maybe we need cookie?

[Anthes]

You can study rapidleech plugin to learn uploading and downloading from file hosts.
The code is in php and it's free.
