credit card # checker ???

numero = 58370

texte = One of my clients does their credit card processing 'semi-manually'... that is they want to accept all orders when they are submitted and they want to stash the order in the database. But they do not charge the credit card until sometime later and then then do it through their CC payment gateway by cutting and pasting the CC number from one (WebDNA) screen to another (the CC Gateway screen)... Once in a while, they have an instance where the CC number that the person enters is not a valid number. We're not talking about a valid number that is declined.... we're talking about the number itself not being valid. I know that there is a mathematical way to inspect the entered CC number and tell whether it's valid or not... and I even wrote a webDNA routine to do just that. However every once in a while my routine reports an invalid number when it's really a valid number. Does anyone have their own routing that I can use instead of my broken one?
