add by fileupload API issue

I have a feeling I'm just missing something but every way I've tried to add an NZB file via the API fileupload hasn't worked. Every time I'm getting the error "Expect one parameter". I've tried specifying just name, just nzbfile, and both of them via both GET and POST requests and no matter what I'm still getting the same error message.
I'm using sab version 0.7.6 on FreeBSD 9.1. Any help with this issue would be appreciated.

I use the curl tool to test this functionality:
curl
http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd/api -F apikey=MYAPIKEY -F mode=addfile -F output=json -F "name=@d:\path\NAME.nzb" -F "cat=tv"

So in that command above, is it adding the contents of the nzb in the POST request or just the filename? In my code should I read the NZB in and then add that as part of the POST?

This is what the verbose output of curl says:
Code: Select all
* timeout on name lookup is not supported
* About to connect() to localhost port 8085 (#0)
* Trying 127.0.0.1...
* connected
* Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1) port 8080 (#0)

So it looks like it uses a POST.
