To make the form "secure" in regards to internet transmission, you need to install OpenSSL (or other SSL implementation) and buy an SSL Certificate from a reputable CA (e.g., Verisign/Thawte...) Well, okay, technically, you can generate a free one for yourself, and it's just as secure in the transmission, but the browser pops up a nasty warning to the users that they are doing something insecure (i.e., trusting you even though you haven't paid the $200 for a background check to get a Cert) and you almost for sure don't want that. The algorithm to check the validity of a CC number can be found in Google so easily, I refuse to even answer that one. :-) "credit card number validity checksum algorithm" ought to get you the results you want. -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
