You have to set all these parameters in your HTML form, as you can see using the WebScripts index:

- filedata, (mandatory) HTML type file
- siteid
- containerid
- uploaddirectory
- updatenoderef
- filename
- description
- contenttype
- majorversion
- overwrite
- thumbnails

The new file must be dropped in one of the Alfresco spaces, this means that you need to set uploaddirectory and the contenttype to specialize the node as you want. The filename is important because Alfresco use this attribute to build the primary path for the content.

Another way is based on implementing your own WebScript following the upload form example webscript to customize some behaviour if you need:
