Jim,

There are more than a few CF tags used for verifying that a card number
is valid.  Search the tag gallery for that.  As for identifying card
types, here's the key that I use:

Starts with...          Type

3                               Amex / Diner's Club
4                               Visa
5                               Mastercard
6                               Discover


HTH

        Lee
