From validation? [ credit card ]

[Editz webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

I want to have a form in my director movie where the user enters their credit card details.

Does anyone know how I can validate the number to see if it is an actual card number (not a registered one but that it could be once)?

Also how can I validate the valid from and valid to dates to see if what has been entered falls within the range of the two dates?

Thanks - joe

Do a search for credit card number validation on Dogpile or any other search
engine and you'll find code... you'll probably have to convert to lingo but
no biggie. I believe it's a fairly simple algorithm using checksums.

Not sure I understand your second question... Just compare the numbers they
enter against the known ones...
