Hi,
First of all thank your for this great implementation of the md5 file without input tag.
I am currently on chrome version 45 and when i am running you function i get an "Uncaught TypeError: Illegal invocation" i attached to this message the screenshot of the error if you can check it out please.
what's the type of the "file" parameters ? actually i put the string path of the file.
Thanks in advance

@meyer59, sorry for the late reply.

first, you should include the dependencies/libraries. SparkMD5 and jQuery

the getFileMd5 method's file parameter accepts FIle class.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/File

File objects are generally retrieved from a FileList object returned as a result of a user selecting files using the element...

I used this with DropzoneJs. This is my implementation.

    dropzone_uploader.on('addedfile', function ( file ) {
        getFileMd5( file ).done( function ( result, file ) {
            //your code here
        });
    });
