Hi BartLors,
On the page, you linked to in your post, is a working Saver example. Just press/click the "Save to Dropbox" button and the example picture "dropblox.png" will ask you select where to put it in your account. 😉

Maybe you cannot yet understand what Saver is doing. It saves provided content through URL(s) in the client Dropbox account, not into yours! The task, you want to achieve, is unsupported by Dropbox' Saver. There is no prebuilt component for that.
To implement upload to Your Dropbox account coming from client machine, you can use something like upload to your server and forward next to your account (i.e. like proxying) or dynamically embed in your page temporary upload links to be used to upload desired files direct to Dropbox server (additional file management may be needed).
Hope this clarifies matter.
