this is a good explanation of the validation you can do.
http://www.beachnet.com/~hstiles/cardtype.html

if you are trying to validate client-side you'll need javascript,
which is why there may not be anything on phpbuilder

i have no idea about the bank side, but post any info you find out
back here, it is coming up soon for me =)

Subject: [PHP] Credit Card Validation


Hey guys (and gals),

I am sure this has been asked many times before, but I couldn't seem to
find a recent PHP4-based thread in the logs at phpbuilder.com; so either
I'm incompetent or it doesn't exist.

My question is pretty obvious, I was wondering what the process for
validating a credit cards with both preprocessing by the form to
determine the pattern validity and post processing by a bank to confirm
the actual card validity.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Best Wishes,
Nathan Taylor
