string hash_hmac_file ( string algo, string filename, string key [, bool raw_output] )

Parameters

algo: Name of selected hashing algorithm (i.e. "md5", "sha256", "haval160,4", etc..)
filename: URL describing location of file to be hashed; Supports fopen wrappers.
key: Shared secret key used for generating the HMAC variant of the message digest.
raw_output: When set to TRUE, outputs raw binary data. Default value (FALSE) outputs lowercase hexits.
