Credit card validation

Introduction

Credit card validation using Regular Expressions.
Background

you must have some knowledge of regular expression, because it is the core part of this functionality.

//
// first Client side validation using JavaScript...
// you have to put to controls one is drop down list (for different credit
//cards names)and other is textbox (for card number).
//just pass two parameter to this function one is id of dropdownlist and
//textbox.

// this function is calling another function isValidCreditCard
//for number validation and it is here...
