Try this:

public class Uploader{
    private var fileReference:FileReference;
    private static const FILE_UPLOAD_URL:String = "http://somewebsite.com/images/..."

    public function Uploader()
    {
        fileReference = new FileReference();
        fileReference.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, onFileSelect);
    }   

    //Call this method to start browsing on local filesystem
    private function doUpload():void
    {
        fileReference.browse();
    }

    //After selecting a file you can now upload it 
    private function onFileSelect():void
    {
        fileReference.upload(new URLRequest(FILE_UPLOAD_URL));
    }

}
