Have first one be a blank option.
<cfselect name = "cardtype">
<option value = "">Select One
<option value = "v">Visa
<option value = "m">Master Card
</cfselect>


Then in the javascript, you check whether the value is "", and if so, kick
out the error:
 if ... document.forms["thisForm"].cardtype.options[thisSelectionIdx].value
== ""
