upload error

I am unable to upload files to wp-content. I have chmoded 777.
I get this error message:
It doesn’t look like you can use the file upload feature at this time because the directory you have specified (/home/huasqagm/public_html/wp-content ) doesn’t appear to be writable by WordPress. Check the permissions on the directory and for typos.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
